Good morning! On today’s show, Matt Swaim and Anna Mitchell welcome Kris McGregor to share a Holy Week reflection from the Office of Readings. Other guests include Steve Ray to discuss the meaning of the word Hosanna, which we proclaimed on Palm Sunday, and Fr. Boniface Hicks with more thoughts on personal prayer. Plus news, weather, sports, and more…

St. Thomas More Prayer
Give me thy grace, good Lord,
Not to long to hear of any worldly things,
But that the hearing of worldly fantasies may be to me displeasant.
Gladly to be thinking of God,
Piteously to call for his help.
To lean unto the comfort of God,
Busily to labour to love him.
To know my own vility and wretchedness,
To humble and meeken myself under the mighty hand of God,
To bewail my sins passed.
For the purging of them, patiently to suffer adversity.
