Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Maximilian Kolbe was born in 1894 in southern Poland and declared a saint on October 10 1982, by Pope John Paul II (for whom he is a spiritual hero). A Man for Others chronicles Kolbe's remarkable life, which climaxed in 1941 in Auschwitz, where he volunteered to die in place of a fellow prisoner he hardly knew. Told chiefly in the words of his family, friends, acquanitances, and death-camp survivors -- including the man he died for -- A Man for Others is the story of an innovative, down-to-earth, and immensely likable man whose martyr's death concluded a life devoted to his ideal of "love without limits." Maximilian Kolbe is a real hero for our times and an inspiration for any reader." --

Book The Life of ST  MAXIMILIAN KOLBE

Download or read book The Life of ST MAXIMILIAN KOLBE written by William LaMay and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-17 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, The Life of St. Maximilian Kolbe, Apostle of Mass Communications, recounts the life of Saint Maximilian Kolbe. In it you will learn how his personal experience of an apparition of the Virgin Mary sent him on the path to a religious vocation with the Franciscan order and to the mission of spreading Marian devotion that eventually reached to all four corners of the globe. Father Kolbe was dedicated to saving souls through Christ and his Mother by making both physical and spiritual sacrifices. As a seminary teacher, he told his students that his ultimate goal was to become a great saint through his love of fellowman. He attained this goal when, as a prisoner in Auschwitz, he died in a starvation bunker so that another prisoner, a stranger to him, could live. In all likelihood, Kolbe's academic brilliance would have gained him a Nobel Prize had he decided to use his God-given gifts to pursue a career in mathematics or science. Instead, this humble priest was inspired by the mother of Jesus to embark on the path of sacrificial love and use his knowledge of philosophy and theology to convert souls to Christ through Mary. His chosen path took him through years of pain and suffering, culminating in living out Christ's words: "No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends" (John 15:13).

Download or read book Vaccination written by Pamela Acker and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Vaccination: A Catholic Perspective, Biologist Pamela Acker provides a balanced examination of the whole subject of vaccination from a Catholic perspective which will allow Catholic leaders from the Pope and the Bishops down to parents and teachers to make an informed judgment on proposals to mandate vaccinations for the novel coronavirus or for other infectious diseases. The author is ideally qualified to undertake this task. A devout Catholic with a master's degree in Biology from the Catholic University of America, Pamela worked in the field of vaccine development and has the right combination of knowledge and experience to evaluate the scientific basis for vaccination as currently practiced. In her book, Miss Acker takes the reader through the history of vaccination while giving a comprehensive introduction to the marvels of the divinely-designed human immune system. Drawing upon the latest research in the field, Miss Acker elucidates the many problematic aspects of vaccination as currently practiced and explains how they flow out of a materialistic, mechanistic, evolution-based understanding of the human person which tends to see man as a collection of parts rather than as a divinely-designed body-soul composite. With powerful examples she shows how the evolution-based approach to the study of disease has had disastrous consequences for scientific and medical research and has supported the maintenance of inadequate criteria for evaluating the efficacy and the dangers of vaccination as currently practiced. Upon this foundation, Miss Acker provides readers with the information they need to make an informed decision about vaccination in general and about a vaccination for the novel coronavirus in particular.
