On today’s show, Fr. Ryan Brady joins to share about St. Maximillian Kolbe: A Martyr of Charity

Jim – My wife and I were on a tour in Poland. I didn’t know a lot about the complete history, but being in Auschwitz where that took place moved us so much. When you come out, you’re in tears. Touched us a lot. We prayed for his intercession.

Break 1

Carol – I went to the shrine a little over a year ago. Had an experience with him to give my all to Mary.

Matt – I’m part of a group called the Kolbe prison ministry. One of my Kolbe brothers’s dad was in Auschwitz and saw the whole thing. The details are pretty incredible. We’re doing a fundraiser for our ministry and we’re going to display some pictures of Kolbe.

Break 2

You can’t talk about St. Maximillian Kolbe without talking about Mary and her Immaculate Heart.
