Our guest today is Gretchen Crowe. Gretchen is the editor-in-chief of Our Sunday Visitor Newsweekly, which is the only weekly Catholic newspaper in the United States. In addition to planning and editing the print publication, Gretchen oversees all digital content on OSVNews.com and Our Sunday Visitor’s social media platforms and is a member of the Catholic Press Association. In 2015, Gretchen got a big surprise while reporting on Pope Francis’ trip – her husband proposed to her at the end of the canonization Mass for St. Junipero Serra. Gretchen and her husband Michael have one child and one on the way.
In 2017, Gretchen wrote her first book, Why the Rosary? Why Now? published by Our Sunday Visitor. Her second book, available this October, is a devotional called, “Praying the Rosary with St. John Paul II.” If anyone can speak to the power of praying the Rosary this Lent, it’s our guest today.
