Saint Peter Canisius: Classic ACU Ep. 4

Today the Church celebrates Saint Peter Canisius, Priest, Doctor of the Church. Did you know that the ACU Marian Sodality’s inclusion in the Prima Primaria back on July 19, 1934 was under the name of Inmaculada & San Pedro Canisio, SJ? Fr. Llorente devoted his homily (in Spanish) of Nov. 12, 1997, to this Jesuit Saint and, among many other insights, explains why ACU’s patron Saint was later changed. Hearing his homily one cannot help but think about how Fr. Llorente offered his life for the Agrupación as, much earlier, St. Peter Canisius offered his for Germany. That evening's guardia also included a study circle by Francisco Javier Muller on another Doctor of the Church, St. Therese of the Child Jesus.
