Holy Family Communications

1. Programming/production:one of our major goals for 2023 was to develop two new shows in 2023, our first show developed was act airing weekdays at 7:00am and the second, ask a priest live airing weekdays at 6:00pm. We also moved mother angelica classics into the 10am hour when we moved mother miriam into the 2:00pm to replace jesse romaro which went into the 8:00pm hour. 2. Four men's marcheshigh community engagement via the men's march and rally in albany, d.c., and boston,with associated events in nyc, d.c., and boston, which also reinforced our organizational brand most especially as "sword bearers and "leaders in the culture battle." 3.
