Saint of the Day 4/28
Every Saint has a story & born in France, Peter’s interest in the missions began in school, when he read letters missionaries to America sent back home. As a young priest, Peter revived a parish in a “bad” district by the simple method of showing great devotion to the sick. 

Saint Peter Chanel, pray for us. Read more below:

Saint of the Day 4/14
Every Saint has a story & not every “disaster” is truly bad in its consequences for the Lord can bring good out of what appears to be a misfortune. Such was the case for Blessed Peter. His being dumped in the mud by a falling horse turned out to be a good thing in his life.

Blessed Peter Gonzalez, pray for us. Read more below:
