Description
What if the story of one man's faith and resilience could inspire and challenge your own spiritual journey? Unearth the stirring legacy of Blessed Stanley Rother, as we commemorate the 42nd anniversary of his martyrdom with a week-long celebration brimming with reflection, prayer, and fellowship. Blessed Stanley's story is not just a testament to his unyielding faith but a remarkable chronicle of the Catholic Church's history in the United States and its enduring mission to proclaim Christ across generations and landscapes.
Join us as we unravel the pioneering efforts of the Oklahoma Church's mission to Guatemala, led by Father Ramon Carlin and Bishop Victor Reed, with Blessed Stanley Rother at the heart of it. Hear how in the face of trials and tribulations, Stanley's contributions flourished, exemplifying the indomitable power of faith. We'll also be inviting everyone to a special bilingual mass at the shrine church to honor Stanley Rother's life of extraordinary service. Let's venture into the past, revel in the present, and inspire our future - together, on Living Catholic with Father Don Wolf.
