How did one frail Franciscan build the largest monastery in the world, establish a Marian mission in Japan from nothing, and ultimately give his life for another man at Auschwitz?
In this second part of the life of St. Maximilian Kolbe, we follow his incredible missionary work, the founding of the City of the Immaculata in Poland and Japan, the miraculous preservation of Nagasaki's monastery, and the heroic act of charity that made him one of the greatest saints of the twentieth century.
St. Maximilian teaches us that holiness comes from total consecration to Our Lady and becoming her instrument for the salvation of souls.
St. Maximilian Kolbe, pray for us!
