This Priest is Cook’in…Really
John, from over at The Immaculate Direction, passed on a post he did recently discussing a new PBS series about a young Tae Kwon Do instructor turned priest who is taking a new approach to trying to make a positive influence on culture through promoting healthy family life.
Fr. Leo is a diocesan priest from the Archdiocese of Baltimore. In the series, he goes into families’ homes to cook a meal and help them to understand the importance of family and the need for families to spend time together around the table.
The series is called, Grace Before Meals. I looked at the trailer (they also have the pilot on line) and must say that I am impressed. He does very well in front of the camera and has a very positive message to present. Fr. Leo is correct, the family today is in crisis. There are many reasons for this. It seems to me that this is one approach that can help some families to realize the damaging effects of a fast food lifesyle.
Go over and take a look and let me know what you think. Hopefully this show does well. If you think it’s worthwhile, let others know about it.

Looks pretty good, just as long as he doesn’t say Bam! at baptisms.
