Cross Catholic Outreach traveled to St. Louis to interview board member Archbishop Mitchell T. Rozanski. Due to renovations at the Cathedral of St. Louis, we had to move downtown and film the interview in the Basilica of King Louis of France, which is steps away from the iconic St. Louis Gateway Arch. It was a beautiful worship space, and the archbishop spoke eloquently about the work of Cross Catholic Outreach. In particular, he reflected on how Cross Catholic Outreach reaches out to the poor in such a way that benefits them not only for the short term but for the long term as well.
