In this episode, we hear the vocation story of Fr. Angelus Montgomery, CFR, how he and his brother (Fr. Innocent) were led to the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, and the work they do to help brothers discern God's voice leading them. We learn about the founding of this community by Fr. Benedict Groeschel and Fr. Andrew Apostoli, about the life and spirituality of St. Francis of Assisi, and about the call to perfect charity, which is holiness.

Fr. Angelus Montgomery, CFR, a Loras College alumnus (’07) and dynamic preacher, speaker and EWTN show co-host. 

Fr. Angelus began to sense the call to priesthood in his junior year of college and eventually felt attracted to the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, a religious order founded by the late Fr. Benedict Groeschel, CFR. After entering the community and given his new name in religious life, now Fr. Angelus was ordained to the priesthood by Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York in May 2018.

Fr. Angelus and his brother have reached out to millennials through their “Icons Spotlight” television program on EWTN and the internet, and a radio show, “Icons Impact” which airs in New Jersey and other states. Together with a Franciscan confrere, they began co-hosting EWTN’s “Sunday Night Prime” this past year, succeeding Fr. Groeschel.
