Shownotes

Millions of people around the world watched or listened to the funeral of Pope Francis live from Rome on April 26 — a solemn and historic moment for the Catholic Church. One of the voices heard during that liturgy was Kielce Gussie, a Vatican journalist who had the honor of proclaiming the first reading at the Mass. A graduate of Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg and a reporter with Vatican News, Gussie has spent years covering the life of the Catholic Church from the heart of Rome. She joins George Matysek to reflect on the extraordinary opportunity to be a part of a papal funeral Mass and her vocation as a Catholic communicator.
