What happens when you combine a deep-rooted Catholic faith, artistic talent, and a resilient spirit? Meet Sam Estrada, a Filipino American illustrator whose journey of faith, creativity, and perseverance is nothing short of inspiring.
Discover the remarkable story of Sam's upbringing in a devout Catholic family and his early aspirations to join the priesthood. From his parents' unwavering support to his transformative mission in Fatima, Portugal, Sam's path was anything but straightforward.

Through it all, Sam remained committed to God's will, using art as a universal language to connect and uplift.
The journey takes an even more heartwarming turn as Sam opens up about finding love during the pandemic. With a shared devotion to St. Joseph, divine providence guided him and his wife through time differences and physical distance, leading to a memorable meeting on the feast of St. Joseph the Worker. Their shared mission to inspire others through art and faith comes to life with religious graphic novels, children's books, and parish talks. Join us for this heartfelt episode that underscores faith, resilience, and the power of saying yes to God's will.
