Feast of St. Maximilian Kolbe





One of the benefits of following a Saint who lived not so long ago is the availability of actual photographs of him or her. I chose this photo to augment this post and celebrate his feast. A look at his "serious side" brings out the heroism and genuine toughness of this great Saint. The meek and humble Saint of Auschwitz had a foundation of stone inside of him. Sometimes that stone came through in a solemn stare such as this. St. Maximilian Kolbe, pray for us.
