Welcome to the Back Porch! "Porch Time with the Padres" was inspired by the almost nightly leisurely back porch conversations of the priests during their time at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. The padres continue to chat about faith, the priesthood, and life in general, hosting the occasional guest along the way. Expect holiness, hilarity, and a hint of hops!
