Saint Gregory the Great
$5.00
Pope St. Gregory the Great joyfully began his religious life around the year 575 as a Benedictine monk. So, when he was elected pope, Gregory was hesitant to take the office but resolute in following God’s will. As pope, Gregory strengthened core elements of the Faith like liturgy and doctrine while prioritizing service and outreach. He ransomed prisoners, protected persecuted Jews, sent preachers to England, and cared for victims of the plague. Today, Gregory is considered a “doctor of the Church.”
Saint Gemma
$5.00
Gemma Galgani was born in 1878 in Italy. Following the death of her mother, young Gemma longed for Heaven and therefore cherished the sacraments. She had visions of Jesus, Mary and her guardian angel. She was miraculously healed of a spinal illness (which led to migraines) and even experienced the stigmata. Gemma wished to become a Passionist nun, but was often ill and died at the young age of 25. Years later, a Passionist monastery, predicted by Gemma, was built near her home town.
Blessed Miguel Pro
$5.00
Ordained in 1925, Miguel Pro was a Jesuit priest in Mexico where public worship was banned. But Pro was kind and clever. He served the poor unceasingly and performed the sacraments in secret. When President Calles’ car was bombed, Pro was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to the firing squad. Hoping to portray Pro as a coward, Calles sent a photograper to the execution. Instead of a cowardly priest, the photo portayed the truth: a brave Miguel Pro, arms stretched, declaring, “Viva Cristo Rey!” (“Long live Christ the King!”)
Saint Francis de Sales
$5.00
Following his ordination in 1593, Francis de Sales traveled throughout Switzerland to share the Faith. Hoping to open hearts, he slipped simple pamphlets under doors instead of lecturing people. He spent time playing with the children instead of proselytizing. In his famous book, Introduction to the Devout Life, Francis taught millions that holiness and peace are possible for everyone. The key was prayer. “By turning your eyes on God in meditation,” he said, “your whole soul will be filled with God.”
