On this episode of Catholic Forum, after a brief introduction and the Gospel for the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, we will hear highlights from some of the ten appearances that Father Leonard Klein made on Catholic Forum since his ordination to the priesthood in 2006. Father Klein was the Rector of the Cathedral of St. Peter, Pastor of Saint Patrick and St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception Churches in Wilmington, Delaware, and Director of Pro-Life Activities for the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington.
