Bishop Daniel Conlon, Bishop of the Diocese of Joliet, IL. Pertaining to: St Peter Chrysologus on the Birth of St John the Baptist. Details of event: Bishop Conlon reads the Gospel of the Annunciation to Zechariah from Luke 1:5-20. Sometimes God blesses us with a gift that is actually an answer to the prayers of others. St Peter Chrysologus also gives a litany of praise for St John the Baptist for all the gifts he received without earning them. Bishop Conlon applies the same logic to babies who receive baptism and he encourages parents to give the gift of Baptism as soon as possible. First aired on: 12/8/2014
