The West Texas Catholic: The Podcast

In this episode, we chat with Michaela Wegman — a proud Umbarger native and art historian proving that the Texas Panhandle is anything but a blank canvas. Discover how Italian POWs, a small-town parish, and a dash of divine inspiration painted one of West Texas’ most unexpected masterpieces. Turns out, even prisoners of war knew how to make a holy mural out of hardship. From brushes to blessings, this episode of the WTC proves beauty can draw us together...one holy wall at a time!
