Alex has a conversation with Diocese of Arlington Seminarian John Meyerhofer. John just finished his first year of studies at Saint Charles Borromeo Seminary in Philadelphia. He is currently staying at the Basilica of Saint Mary for his summer assignment.

Founded in 1795, the Basilica of Saint Mary in Old Town Alexandria is the first Catholic parish established in Virginia. Pope Francis named the church a minor basilica on December 6, 2017 due to its important role in the growth of the Catholic Church in North America.
