Badass Saints and Extraordinary Women: Recent Episodes
Maria Morera Johnson
Living the challenge of sainthood is about embracing our crosses and daring to help others carry theirs. Tricky? Yes. Hard? Definitely. Heroic? Absolutely. Badass? You bet! These are stories of exceptional women, some saints and some extraordinary, who rose to the occasions in which they found themselves. We can look to their examples for leading our own lives of extraordinary virtue in search of holiness.
In this episode we learn about the devotion to Our Lady of Charity of El Cobre, a devotion that consoles us in the stormy times in which we live. We also hear about St. Anthony Mary Claret, a Spanish saint who served as Archbishop of Santiago, Cuba, where the devotion to Our Lady of Charity blossomed.
