Every night at Auschwitz, after a draining and exhausting day, Fr Maximilian Kolbe would go quietly from bunk to bunk to care for the other prisoners, whispering: "I am a Catholic priest. Is there anything I can do for you?"
His witness, courage, and faith at the notorious prison camp were the culmination of a lifetime of heroic and groundbreaking work in the service of the Lord. It is a story of true hope in what could have only seemed like the greatest darkness.
On Let Me Be Frank this week, Bishop Caggiano speaks with Anthony D'Ambrosio, who has written and directed Triumph of the Heart, a stunning new film about this great saint.
You can attend a special pre-release screening of Triumph of the Heart on Thursday, August 14th at the AMC Royale in Norwalk, CT. More information and tickets are here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/rsvp-for-triumph-of-the-heart-early-access-norwalk-ct-tickets-1489664288989

"All roads lead to Rome," they say. The Diocese of Bridgeport's 34 seminarians, Bishop Caggiano, and some special guests recently went to Italy for a pilgrimage to Rome & Assisi.
Today, Bishop Frank takes us on a tour of both cities - the history, the major sites, the life of St Francis, and... the museum of pasta!
It's an audio summer getaway on Let Me Be Frank. Buon divertimento!

Sophia Institute Press has recently published God's Influencer, a book about Carlo Acutis written from interviews with his parents!
Mary Beth Bracy joined us from Sophia Institute Press to tell us about Carlo's short but holy life, the miracles attributed to him on the road to canonization, how we can begin following his extraordinary example, and more!
Funnily enough, on an episode focused on a young man who used technology so well in the service of the Lord... we experienced some real technology challenges!

"Salvation is of the entire person, not just the soul. If we involve the body in the spiritual life, we are completing that which the Lord wants."
Bishop Frank made that observation during his conversation with Jamie Baxter, founder of Exodus 90. Exodus 90 is an outstanding program for men to lean on prayer, asceticism, and fraternity as a means to the goal of freedom.
This was a really, very edifying conversation for me to listen in on.
I've been afraid to give Exodus 90 a try, despite many invitations from dear friends... perhaps this episode is a sign I should not ignore any longer...
Pax Christi,
