Join Fr. Mark Baron, MIC, the new Director of the Association of Marian Helpers (“Fr. Joseph, MIC”), as he tells the story of St. Agnes, whose feast we celebrate on Jan. 21. Agnes was just 13 years old when she was martyred in the year 304 A.D. Yet her brief life, heroic virtue, and death captured the imagination of her contemporaries and the Church in Rome. St. Agnes, pray for us!
Why is martyrdom valued in the Christian faith? It is not for the reasons you may think. Why is Christianity the most persecuted faith in the world - or is it?
Father Joseph Roesch, MIC, shares the account of the apparition of Our Lady to St. Catherine Laboure in 1830 from Paris, France.
Father Dan Cambra, MIC, shares stories about St. John Damascus and his defense of sacred images.
