Mother Cabrini's Empire of Hope with Rod Barr, "Cabrini" Movie Screenwriter
Manage episode 405142676 series 3332619
Screenwriter Rod Barr shares how God had a plan for Mother Francesca Cabrini that was not her own.
At the turn of the 20th century, the dream of a better life inspired Italian immigrants to journey to America. Tragically, most found themselves among the poorest of the poor and even homeless--including the children.
While Mother Cabrini had committed her heart to ministry in China, Pope Leo XIII directed her to help these immigrants where they had landed in New York City.
While many build empires for themselves, Saint Frances Cabrini built one for God.
In this Lenten podcast, hear how Saint Cabrini's revolutionary heart for Christ changed Rod's own heart to create this film about The First American Saint. Learn about this nun of supernatural faith, determination and perseverance--and allow her life to change yours.
Go see the movie Cabrini in a theater near you beginning Friday, March 8th!
