Scott Carter, Coordinator for the Office for the Beatification of Venerable Emil Kapaun, discusses the news out of the Vatican where Fr Kapaun moves one step closer to sainthood. + Monsignor Charles Pope reflects on visions the saints have had about hell, in his new book, The Hell There Is.

After the Pope's 12th night in the hospital, his condition remains stable yet critical. As the federal workforce continues to be cut down in big numbers, the White House defends a request for federal employees to explain what they have recently done at work. House Republicans face a critical test as a sweeping GOP budget bill, closely aligned with former President Donald Trump's agenda, heads to the House floor. The Vatican has taken a significant step toward recognizing Fr. Emil Kapaun and six others.

On this episode of Walk in Faith, Craig Syracusa is joined By Director and Producer Richard Hull to discuss his latest project, Fighting Spirit: A Combat Chaplin's Journey. When the remains of prisoner of war and Army combat chaplain Emil Kapaun (perhaps the Vatican's next saint) are identified after 70 years, much of our nation is captivated by their journey home.  As a younger former chaplain unexpectedly embarks on his own journey to greet them, he becomes inspired by the untold stories of the 419 U.S. military chaplain heroes who've given their lives for this unique calling.  As the paths of these combat chaplains from different eras finally collide, we're reminded how the profound weight of history and the immense power of love can converge to produce life-changing healing.This film has inspired me in many ways.

Combat chaplains wear uniforms, but carry no weapons. And their service can involve the ultimate sacrifice. For nearly 250 years, in every battle throughout our nation's history, they've been there...quietly supporting soldiers while bullets flew by. Perhaps more than any other profession, diversity is their unique and inspirational strength because, while they may be Catholic, Jewish, Muslim, or Buddhist, when they're on the front lines of combat, they support and stand-up for soldiers of all faiths...and no faith.When the remains of prisoner-of-war and Army combat chaplain Emil Kapaun (perhaps the Vatican's next saint) are identified after 70 years, much of our nation is captivated by their journey home.

Father Dave welcomes author John Stansifer to the show to talk about Father Emil Kapaun, the most decorated chaplain in U.S. military history. John has written over 20 screenplays, specializing in biopics and historical true stories. He spent six years in the Kansas Army National Guard as a mortar gunner and served alongside Vietnam War veterans, whose stories further developed his interest in military history. His latest book is called “No Bullet Got Me Yet: The Relentless Faith of Father Kapaun.”  “No Bullet Got Me Yet” is a collection of letters written by, to and about Emil Kapaun, a Catholic priest and army chaplain in the Korean War. Archived by the Father Kapaun Guild, the letters comprise the record of Kapaun's heroism in the 1st Cavalry Division in Korea in the summer of 1950, and the sacrificial service he provided fellow POWs after he was captured by Chinese troops in November. He died at POW Camp in 1951 and was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor by President Barack Obama in 2013. RELATED: Spirituality and the Soldier Father Kapaun, John explains, had been a priest for about a year when Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941, and joined the Chaplains Corp in the aftermath. He served as an auxiliary chaplain at a military airbase in the United States for two years, and after D-Day, June 6, 1944, decided he wanted to serve overseas alongside American soldiers. He was sent to the China-Burma-India Theater of the war in 1945.  Father Dave asks, “What do you think, having investigated his life, was so compelling for him about serving in the military as a chaplain? Why was he so attracted to that?” “He felt like he needed to protect his boys in a spiritual way,” John responds. “And he was aware of martyrs and proto-martyrs, and he had been training for the Church since age 7, so it was obvious where his life was going to lead.” After World War II, Father Kapaun obtained a master's degree in education at Catholic University before rejoining the military as a chaplain in 1948. He was eventually sent to Korea in 1950. “It was the rise of communism that spurred him on," John says, “He thought the Nazis were nothing. He thought that communism was going to be the bigger threat. Turns out he was correct.” RELATED: Learning About Grace and Thanksgiving From a Veteran John goes on to discuss Father Kapaun's capture, heroics, and time in a Chinese POW camp in the winter of 1951 before his death. “The survivors that knew him,” Father Dave comments, “describe him as a joyful, faithful presence during those dark times.”   “He never stopped.” John says. “He got up before dawn and scrounged for food — never for himself, it was only to share with other people.  He constantly offered prayers, helped other POWs with their wounds and sickness. He was tireless with it.” Father Dave asks John about the title of the book, “No Bullet Got Me Yet.”  “Father Kapaun was a frequent letter writer,” John says, “and in one of his last letters Father Kapaun actually wrote- ‘No bullet got me yet, although machine gunners sprayed us with bullets, but the prayers of our loved ones helped us escape.' When I heard that phrase, ‘no bullet got me yet,' I knew that was the title of the book — that represents to me a philosophy that you keep the faith until your enemy kills you, and you keep going until you achieve your goal.”

Inspiration From Father Emil Kapaun

We had the ultimate privilege of sitting down with Scott Carter, the resident expert on all things Father Emil Kapaun, to not only figure out how to pronounce his name (spoilers we didn't) but also to hear the story of the life of this incredible (almost) Wichitan both before and after his death. Scott makes the remark that Father Kapaun might be the most famous person buried in Wichita and having heard his story, you will probably agree. The man was not only a great Wichitan but an even better human who put his life on the lines constantly to serve others. https://frkapaun.org/Follow/Like Us!Website - https://www.wichitapodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wichitapodcast/                          https://www.instagram.com/threeyumsix/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/WichitaPodcast                          https://www.facebook.com/threeyumsixTwitter - https://twitter.com/WichitaPodcast                    https://twitter.com/threeyumsixTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@wichitapodcastEmail - wichitapodcast@gmail.comWichita Podcast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5-HvQ16Chb5FzfXBeXuOMA(3YUM6) YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO5v3FPrfLHBAbUZ5OBozBgIntro sounder from the Wichita Now video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WH6XW1JltQY&t=349sTheme music by Emily Hahn - @emilyhahnmusic on Instagram.

You may be familiar with John 15:13 “No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends.” But what does that look like in real life? In this week's episode we talk about the life of Servant of God Fr.

Nick Dellasega should have died on May 7th, 2011, at the age of twenty-six. During a 5k race, he collapsed and his heart stopped beating. A teenage cousin prayed fervently at Nick's side, asking particularly for the intercession of Fr. Emil Kapaun, the Kansas-native, Korean-war chaplain. Barely making it to a hospital in time, Nick should have been brain-dead or beyond resuscitation when his pulse restarted. His miraculous case is now being considered by the Vatican for the canonization cause for Fr. Kapaun. Nick shares his amazing story with Jackie and the lessons learned in this episode!

Emil Kapaun were, they decided the value of this conversation outweighed their shortcomes of their fledgling recording abilities.  They hope you agree.

Emil Kapaun was a Catholic priest and U.S. Army Chaplain born in the small Czech farming community of Pilsen, Kansas on April 20, 1916. Growing up he was much like any other hardworking farm boy, but was especially mindful of God and others. Four years after his ordination as a priest of the Diocese of Wichita, he entered the Chaplain Corps to serve the troops in World War II and was sent to the Burma-India theater. After the war he went back to parish life, but re-entered the Chaplain Corps in 1948, serving first at Ft. Bliss, Texas. At the beginning of 1950 he was assigned to the 1st Cavalry Division in Japan.In July of 1950 Chaplain Kapaun and the 8th Cavalry Regiment of the Army's 1st Cavalry Division were among the first troops sent to help defend nearby South Korea after its invasion by the North. Chaplain Kapaun quickly gained a reputation for bravery by ministering to soldiers in the thick of battle, often having to be reminded to keep his head down from oncoming bullets.Eventually pushing its way into North Korea, the 8th Cav was ambushed by a large Chinese Army that had secretly entered the war. Here, at the Battle of Unsan on November 2, Kapaun once again braved the battlefield to rescue men or give them Last Rites. He showed his dedication to his "boys" by choosing to remain with a number of wounded men rather than escape. Captured by the enemy, this group was forced to march over 60 miles to a prison camp along the Chinese border in the bitter cold. Along the way, Father Kapaun carried his wounded comrades and encouraged them to do likewise. For his actions at the Battle of Unsan, Kapaun was awarded the military's highest award, the Medal of Honor, in 2013.In his seven months in the prison camp, Father Kapaun spent himself in heroic service to his fellow prisoners without regard for race, color, or creed, giving them help and hope when they needed it most. Ignoring his own ill health, he nursed the sick and wounded, stole food for the hungry, picked lice off of men, washed dirty and soiled clothing, and encouraged men through prayer and humor to keep fighting for life. Falling sick, the Chinese moved Father Kapaun to a so-called hospital, where, denied medical assistance, his death soon followed on May 23, 1951.Two years later the surviving Prisoners of War were released, and with them came a beautiful crucifix carved in the camp by a Jewish POW who was inspired by tales of Father Kapaun's deeds. The Prisoners testified to Father Kapaun's role in their survival and began to tell the world about their heroic and saintly chaplain. This is a role that the Father Kapaun Guild seeks to carry on as we pray and work for his Canonization as a saint in the Catholic Church. We ask you to join us in prayer and in sharing Father Kapaun's story with the rest of the world.https://catholicdioceseofwichita.org/father-kapaun/patreon.com/patriotradio

Emil Kapaun was a Catholic priest and U.S. Army Chaplain born in the small Czech farming community of Pilsen, Kansas on April 20, 1916. Growing up he was much like any other hardworking farm boy, but was especially mindful of God and others. Four years after his ordination as a priest of the Diocese of Wichita, he entered the Chaplain Corps to serve the troops in World War II and was sent to the Burma-India theater. After the war he went back to parish life, but re-entered the Chaplain Corps in 1948, serving first at Ft. Bliss, Texas. At the beginning of 1950 he was assigned to the 1st Cavalry Division in Japan.In July of 1950 Chaplain Kapaun and the 8th Cavalry Regiment of the Army's 1st Cavalry Division were among the first troops sent to help defend nearby South Korea after its invasion by the North. Chaplain Kapaun quickly gained a reputation for bravery by ministering to soldiers in the thick of battle, often having to be reminded to keep his head down from oncoming bullets.Eventually pushing its way into North Korea, the 8th Cav was ambushed by a large Chinese Army that had secretly entered the war. Here, at the Battle of Unsan on November 2, Kapaun once again braved the battlefield to rescue men or give them Last Rites. He showed his dedication to his "boys" by choosing to remain with a number of wounded men rather than escape. Captured by the enemy, this group was forced to march over 60 miles to a prison camp along the Chinese border in the bitter cold. Along the way, Father Kapaun carried his wounded comrades and encouraged them to do likewise. For his actions at the Battle of Unsan, Kapaun was awarded the military's highest award, the Medal of Honor, in 2013.In his seven months in the prison camp, Father Kapaun spent himself in heroic service to his fellow prisoners without regard for race, color, or creed, giving them help and hope when they needed it most.

Father Emil Kapaun walked through gunfire without getting shot- some call it a miracle. Others call him a Saint.

As the country has recently celebrated Veteran's Day, Father Drew Hoffman of St. Isidore's Catholic Student Center shares the story of a true American hero: Father Emil Kapaun. Venerated by the Catholic Church as a "Servant of God," Kapaun was ordained in the Diocese of Wichita, served as a U.S Army Chaplain in WW2 and Korea, and was an example of faith, valor, and service to others--even to the point of death. There are so many lessons we can learn from this great soul.

Bishop Spencer, a retired Chaplain and Colonel in the US Army served those who serve us in the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA, joins us on this special Veteran's Day episode in the Foxhole. His duties took him all the world, and he graciously takes our listeners along a journey to better understand the ministry of the Archdiocese, and he reveals his personal story that weaves in brushes with danger, and encounters with Fr. Emil Kapaun, as their common service to others unfolded. Bishop's remarkable story is a can't miss tribute to not only those who serve us in uniform, but to all of those who serve these very brave men and women.

Wounded by a grenade during a battle with Chinese Communists, Sergeant Herbert Miller found himself staring at the barrel of an enemy rifle. He thought it was the end of the road for him, until he noticed a US Army Chaplain make his way across the battlefield to push the Communist soldier aside and pick Miller up. He then proceeded to help Miller along a grueling march to a Prisoner of War Camp. Hear Herb share how that Chaplain, Emil Kapaun, continued to give men hope in the midst of their trial, and how Herb came to know God in the darkness of the POW Camp.

There are many war heroes in our great tradition, and I'm proud to say that one is local to my little state of Kansas. Join the Social and come learn about Father Emil Kapaun!
