Faith Talk with Fr. A We're diving deeper into our Catholic faith with our Chaplain, Fr. Nicholas Ashmore in a new series entitled, "Faith Talks with Father 'A'". In this episode seniors Mara Loughman and Emily Eckerberg ask Fr. Ashmore for advice on how to maintain and enhance their Catholic faith life in college. Parents, this episode offers good insights into what your seniors are asking about their next journey as soon-to-be college students & how to keep their faith.
Episodes are produced by our students and are recorded in our media Green Room. If you missed the first episode, you can watch it on STAHalo. Click on the button below.
