A throw-back to our May Mariathon 2025 hearing from the delightful Sisters of Mary and the wonderful work that they do. What is a Mariathon? Every May, Radio Maria stations all over the world fundraise for each other, gathering financial support for another Radio Maria somewhere in the world. We call this the Mariathon. This year (2025) Radio Maria England gives thanks for the riches of the Catholic faith in the Philippines which spills out into our parishes here in the UK with the presence of strong Filipino communities that serve so generously. Supporting Radio Maria in the Philippines is a way for us to give back and support the faith in the Philippines, a vast country with a thriving faith but where many do not have regular access to the sacraments and a Catholic radio can do a lot of wonderful work. Visit our website and make a contribution to keep Radio Maria in the Philippines on air. The campaign ends on Friday the 6th of June. Visit ⁠www.RadioMariaEngland.uk⁠ to find out more. A Blossoming Mission in LuzonRadio Maria Philippines was the first of its kind in Asia. It began in 2002, not far from Manila. Over the years, it has expanded steadily across the northern region of Luzon. Currently, on four FM frequencies covering multiple dioceses.Additionally, its digital channels broadcast from the main headquarters in Tarlac. Filipino listeners have always been loyal. They support the station despite poverty and economic hardship. Their faithfulness speaks volumes about Radio Maria's impact.Truly, the station has become both a spiritual and social voice in their daily lives. It nourishes souls and strengthens communities. Now, more bishops want Radio Maria in their cities. They long to hear it in Tagalog and other local dialects.The Philippines is made of over 7,000 islands. Many still wait to receive the voice of Radio Maria.Naturally, this demand brings financial challenges. New towers, and equipment are costly. Transport and setup are major undertakings. The main studio in Tarlac needs attention. Its production equipment is outdated. The building itself requires urgent renovation. For 23 years, Radio Maria Philippines has remained self-sufficient. However, today it cannot face these new challenges alone.Firstly, funds are needed to restore the headquarters and upgrade its technology. This is the top priority. Then, the mission will focus on expansion. Bishops are offering premises and sometimes even frequencies to help. However, to succeed, Radio Maria needs international support. It needs friends who believe in this mission.The Philippines is the world's third-largest Catholic country. Expanding Radio Maria here is a chance to plant lasting seeds. With your help, more Filipinos can hear the Good News. Your support can turn dreams into stations of hope.Let your giving blossom this May. Support Flores de Maria. Let Radio Maria grow, bloom, and bear fruit in the Philippines.Blossoms That Need Watering Your Giving Can Bear Fruit

This week on Culture Tuesday, I reflected on the joyful, unpredictable, and grace-filled world of Children's Liturgy. Blending storytelling, song, and real-life moments from parish life, the episode explored how music and imagination help children encounter the Gospel in ways that are both meaningful and memorable.I shared some of the creative ways we bring Scripture to life—through Godly Play, chants, and even a “Golden Box” full of symbols and surprises—and why these little moments matter. There was also a reminder from Bishop Patrick McKinney that will stay with me: Christ delights in the efforts parents make to bring their children to Mass, even on the most chaotic of Sundays.This wasn't a typical episode—it was a bit more spontaneous, more personal—but perhaps that's fitting. After all, when it comes to passing on the faith, it's often in the unscripted moments that we meet Jesus most clearly.
