Peter Kiernan joins the Catholic Morning Show to remember his uncle, Fr. James Kiernan, whose tenth anniversary memorial Mass will be celebrated at Saint Ambrose Cathedral. Peter shares stories about Fr. Jim’s fifty-six years as a priest in the Diocese of Des Moines, his dedication to parish life, his influence on countless Catholics across Iowa, and the simple but profound spiritual lessons he shared with others.

The conversation also explores the importance of Catholic funeral traditions, praying for the dead, pre-planning funerals, and carrying forward the legacy of faithful priests who shaped the Church through humble service and devotion.

Listen live weekdays at 7 AM CT on Iowa Catholic Radio, online at IowaCatholicRadio.com, or on the Iowa Catholic Radio app.
