Faith, Food, and Resilience—From Lent to Lockdown and Beyond

On this special Lenten edition of JustLove, Monsignor Kevin Sullivan sits down with Erica Shadoin, a third-generation McDonald’s franchisee in Cincinnati, Ohio, to discuss her family’s legacy and her grandfather, Lou Groen—the creator of the Filet-O-Fish sandwich, a staple for Catholics since 1962. Later, as we mark the 5th anniversary of New York’s shutdown due to COVID-19, we welcome back Dr. Robert W. Snyder, Manhattan Borough Historian and Professor Emeritus at Rutgers University, to explore his new book, When the City Stopped: Stories from New York’s Essential Workers. Tune in for these compelling conversations on faith, resilience, and history.
