The Franciscan Sisters TOR of Penance of the Sorrowful Mother exist to glorify God and make known His merciful love. They have a deep devotion to Mary at the foot of the cross, but as you’ll see here, their joy speaks a paradox to the world – namely, that the Gospel calls us to both repent and rejoice. In this episode, Sr. Agnes Maria and Sr. Philomena Clare share about how this twofold call plays out in their lives as sisters, and they encourage us to do the same.

The Damascus Podcast is the official podcast of Damascus, a Catholic missionary movement that invites as many young people and their families as possible into a life-changing encounter with Jesus and His Church. With a combination of long-form conversations, roundtable discussions, and lessons from 25 years of ministry, this podcast exists to bring the Damascus experience to everyday life – where an encounter with what Jesus is doing in this generation of the Church leads to the mission of bringing that encounter to the next generation of the Church.
