Do you "church hop" or do you go to your territorial parish, closest to your actual dwelling? You're called to invest in a place of worship, an active participant who cares about what happens there. And canon law has something to say about where we go to worship, and the people in our neighborhood. Katie talks to author Patrick Neve about his new book on saving your parish and J.D. Flynn about our canonical responsibilities, and our pastoral call, about where (and how) we worship.
Rian Johnson, the director of Wake Up Dead Man, the third in the wildly popular Knives Out franchise on Netflix, chose a Catholic parish as the setting of his latest film for a variety of reasons, the main one being: Catholicism looks cool.
