Join our brothers and sisters from Saints Clare and Kateri parishes for the film,
Triumph of the Heart: The Passion of St. Maximillian Kolbe There will be two showings this Sunday, September 14, one at 6:00 pm and the other at 7:30 pm at the Laemmle Theater in Newhall (22500 Lyons Avenue, Santa Clarita 91321). There is a discount for parishioners at these two showings if you purchase your tickets in advance and mention Catholics in SCV. We celebrated the feast in honor of St. Maximilian just a few weeks ago (August 14). He was a Conventual Franciscan priest who among other things founded a monastery in Poland and served as a missionary in Japan. He had a powerful devotion to our Lady. Eventually, he was arrested by the Gestapo and interred in the Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz. When ten prisoners were selected for execution he volunteered to replace one of them who had a wife and children. He led the prisoners in prayer and was eventually killed by a lethal injection on August 14, 1941.
