Today we learn about St. Catherine Labouré, the humble Daughter of Charity chosen by God to receive the Miraculous Medal. Although she lived a hidden and quiet life, Catherine was entrusted with a mission that changed the world. Through her obedience, the Blessed Virgin Mary revealed a powerful sacramental that continues to bring grace, healing, and conversion to millions of people.
In this episode, Saul shares 7 cool facts about St. Catherine. You will hear about her early love for Mary, her visions of St. Vincent de Paul, the angel who woke her for the first apparition, the moment she received the Miraculous Medal, her life of service to the elderly and poor, her hidden identity for 46 years, and the miracle of her incorrupt body. St. Catherine shows us that holiness shines brightest when it is humble and obedient.
