Joining me on today's show to discuss the readings for the Fifth Sunday of Easter were Fr. John Farren, O.P., and my brother, Brian Gillen, a professor of theology at Seton Hall University in South Orange, New Jersey. The University was founded in 1856 by Archdiocese of Newark Bishop James Roosevelt Bayley, a cousin of President Theodore Roosevelt. Bishop Bayley named the institution after his aunt, Mother Elizabeth Ann Seton, who was later named the first American-born Catholic saint.
