World Youth Day 2023 has wrapped up and many young people had memorable experiences, but is it just a short-term spiritual high?  Greg and Susan Rohr and Father Collin Poston share the longer term fruits of their powerful experience at World Youth Day in Denver in 1993.  Father Poston, now pastor of St. Bartholomew in Manchester, traveled there when he was a Methodist and came back with a deep desire to become Catholic.  Listen to this memorable and enjoyable story of how the fruits of their experience continue to overflow to this day.

Greg and Susan Rohr have been married for 36 years and are members of St. Mary in Hagerstown. They have 9 children and 14 grandchildren. They are co-founders of CHERISH (Catholic Hearts Espoused Rejoice In Sacramental Hope) married couples ministry. See cherishcouples.net for more information.
