Today’s the feast of St. Maximillian Kolbe, we read Matthew 18:15-20. Jesus teaches us how we are to correct a brother that sins against us and how often we are to forgive.
St. Maximillian Kobe, beautifully devoted to the Blessed Virgin Mary, helped give hope to the people in Auschwitz. Maximillian offered himself in the place of a man that was going to be killed because the man cried out that he had a family. It was in the starvation chamber, where “two or three were present”, that Jesus was present with these individuals. St. Maximilian Kolbe was the last to survive, praying for the souls of those who had gone before and for the forgiveness of his captors.
St. Maximilian offered his life as a witness to the Good News of the Gospel. Through his intercession may we have the courage of our convictions, that we might bring the light and peace of God to all we meet.
St. Maximilian Kolbe, pray for us!
