Foster Care: The Back Story to a Movie

The most recent statistics show that more than 500,000 children are part of the U.S. foster-care system. Theirs is a story rarely told. Until now.

The Lost and Found Family shares a heartwarming story of a foster family facing real-life issues as they attempt to save their home—even as their landlord becomes an unwanted tenant.

But more than that, director Barnet Bain sees the movie as “an ideal catalyst for opening dialogues with policy makers, and business and faith leaders about the urgent need for many more people to come forward and support these young people.”

Eucharist

Fr. Barron offers inspiring insights into the mystery of Christ’s presence in our lives and the centrality of the Eucharist as an important part of that presence. So many believers do not understand the mystery of the Eucharist, which Vatican II said is the “source and summit of the Christian life.”    This fresh look at the Eucharist brings to light its reality as sacred meal, the sacrifice necessary for communion with God and the real presence of Christ.
