Max and the Beard

Story taken from

The Catholic News Agency

I immediatly thought of The Catholic Gentleman when I read this piece.

Also, please note that the major Relics of St. Maximilian will be touring the US, so visit and venerate if possible.

Enjoy!

 

“”He was on the Nazi radar,” Hamilton emphasized. His superior told him it was better he shaved his beard off so as not to stand out in the society.

Hamilton described how “the brother shaving off the beard put it aside. Maximillian saw it and asked what he was doing.” Then he told the barber brother to throw the beard into the fire. The brother did, but there were no coals.

“So when Maximilian left, he fished it out. By 1939 he was a ‘force’, so the guys knew we better grab some relics while we can,” Hamilton said.”

 

Blessed Mother Teresa Classic

“…in the most surreal moment, I said a prayer to Mother Teresa for Mother Teresa… and the catheter came loose” – Dr. Lombardi – at around 13:53.

Mother Teresa’s Doctor:  Doctor George Lombardi

 

This video is fairly old, but well worth a refresh.  As we head into the final stretch before Blessed Mother Teresa is formally canonized, please watch it and enjoy.

 

 

Saint Agnes Feast Day

Happy Feast day to yet another beautiful virgin and martyr.  Saint Agnes was also persecuted under Diocletian in the late 3rd century, similar to Saint Philomena.  Saint Agnes was only around 13 years old when she was pressured to marry, but she had already promised herself to Jesus.  Her Christian faith cost her life.  Let us pray that we also have this same courage.

All Saints Museum has added two Holy Cards to our Holy Card Project in honor of St. Agnes.  One of them is a personal treasure belonging to a friend of our family named Agnes in the 1950’s.

All Saints Museum Incorporated

All Saints Museum was officially incorporated as a Non-Profit on December 20th, 2015.  Our Articles of Incorporation have been posted to our website. If the Lord is placing this Mission on your heart, please consider a donation to All Saints Museum.  This money will go toward growth and building this organization.  Although we are currently in the process of applying for Tax-Exempt (501(c)(3)) status, once we are approved all donations are retroactively eligible.  If you have any questions or request more information about our cause and vision, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment on our Facebook Page, or email us direct at [email protected].

I will be writing more about the miracles that have happened this past year that have lead to our formation, including how our name All Saints Museum came to be.

My daughter loves the Saints.  However, when I asked her why she wasn’t reading a book on the Life of St. Catherine of Siena, she responded timidly, “well, it’s because its… well… boring…”.  And I think that summarizes really well why All Saints Museum is critical.  This Museum is intended to reach those people who need the inspiration of the Saints, yet aren’t quite motivated enough to pick up a book to read about them.  All Saints Museum’s goal is to provide a more comprehensive experience (including the use of multi-media and high tech) of these Holy People.  God gave us our senses, and All Saints Museum is taking this into consideration as we search for tools to evangelize.  This is what the New Evangelization is about indeed.

Not every aspect of the Saints is always exciting and extravagant.  Actually, that is in part what makes them so inspirational.  It’s the fact that they are real humans; real “normal”, that gives us the tangible hope of attaining Sainthood.  But we need to bring this reality to people.  I hope you will join us on this journey together to sanctity.

 

God bless.
