St. Martin of Tours
On Nov. 11, Veterans Day, we are reminded of the courage and sacrifice of those who serve and have served our country, both past and present.

Father Matthew Tomeny, MIC, who is preparing to become a U.S. Navy Chaplain, shares the inspiring story of a soldier-saint, St. Martin of Tours, whose life shows us what it truly means to serve, both God and neighbor.

Does Biblical evidence exist for the Catholic Church's claim that the Pope is Christ's Vicar here on earth?
