“Be good, love the Lord, pray for those who do not know Him.  What a great grace it is to know God!” – Saint Josephine Bakhita

As Black History month continues, Talking Saints focuses on today’s Feast of Saint Josephine Bakhita, a 19th century Sudanese woman whose faith and generosity of spirit continue to inspire others.

Our hosts Laurie and Pete unpack the journey of Saint Josephine Bakhita- from slave, to converted Catholic, to Cannosian religious sister- which shows that out of suffering, a grace-filled transformation is possible.

Patron of Sudan, invoked to end human trafficking, pray for us!

Note: 

Our hosts, as well, in this Year of Saint Joseph, continue the recitation of “The Litany of Saint Joseph,” which can be found here: https://www.usccb.org/prayer-and-worship/prayers-and-devotions/litanies/litany-of-saint-joseph
