Building Bridges - Saint Benezet

Howdy all!  Welcome back to another episode, today we are going to explore the life of Saint Benezet, a young man who did what he was called to do even though others mocked him.   Have a wonderful day!   Prayer: Lord, grant me the eyes to see and ears to hear what you have to show and say to me, just as you said to Saint Benezet.

The Bilocating Pilgrim - Saint Drogo

Howdy all! Today we are going to explore the life of Saint Drogo (of Sebourg), a 12th century saint known for his devotion, skills, miracles, and commitment to those who needed help.  And somehow patron saint of coffee?   Have a wonderful day!   Prayer: Heavenly Father, through the intercession of Saint Drogo, we pray for all those who suffer from physical deformities or disabilities. May they be granted the strength and courage to face their challenges with grace and hope, and may they know the love and support of those around them. We ask that you bring healing and comfort to those who are suffering, and that they may find joy and peace in your presence.

The Stressed Saint - Saint Walter of Pontoise

Howdy all!  Today we are going to explore the life of Saint Walter of Pontoise, a man who was so good at his job, he was forced to do it even though it stressed him out.  Something I'm sure a lot of us can relate to.   Have a wonderful day!   Prayer: Lord, guide us in the challenges we face everyday in our lives and especially in our workplace just as you guided Saint Walter of Pontoise. Keep us free from work-related stress and grant us the patience to get through any challenges that arise. And help us achieve the same success in our work as you helped Saint Walter of Pontoise achieve.

An Atypical Saint - Saint Brychan

Howdy all!  Welcome back to another episode! Today we are looking at the life of Saint Brychan, a king, a father, and a rather atypical saint.   Have a wonderful day!   Prayer: O God, who blessed Saint Brychan with a large family and a heart for the poor, grant that we, following his example of faith and dedication, may grow in wisdom and virtue. May we, like him, bear witness to Thy glory through a life of love and service, and, following his example, one day reach the heavenly kingdom.

The Woman Who Saved the Church - Saint Catherine of Siena

Howdy all!  Today we are going to take a look at the life of Saint Catherine of Siena, a woman devoted to God since she was 5 years old and led an all-too-brief life focused on faith and helping others.  She left us a wonderful document, her "Dialogue" that shows us her close relationship with God.   Have a wonderful day!   Prayer: Holy Spirit, come into my heart; Draw it to Thee by Thy power, O my God, And grant me charity with filial fear. Preserve me, O beautiful love, from every evil thought; Warm me, inflame me with Thy dear love, And every pain will seem light to me. My Father, my sweet Lord, help me in all my actions. Jesus, love.   or a longer prayer: https://www.nashvilledominican.org/prayer/litanies/litany-of-st-catherine-of-siena/ [https://www.nashvilledominican.org/prayer/litanies/litany-of-st-catherine-of-siena/]
