The Rock Catholic Radio produces great local shows every month. We talk about vocations and conversions, we learn the histories of our local parishes, and we sit down with our bishops for fruitful conversations. Here’s a full list of our October 2026 programming.
You can sign up for our mailing list in the “Contact Us” tab of them menu and have this list emailed directly to you every month. You’ll also receive our semi-annual paper newsletter. Sign up today!
