Powers and Dominions<br />
Angels, Demons, and Spiritual Warfare<br />
In all of God’s creation we see such splendor and<br />
beauty, mystery and wonder. Within this creation<br />
there are beings with intellect and free will:<br />
humans and angels.<br />
From the creation of the world, the realm of the<br />
angels and the world of men have interacted. This<br />
interaction is not always a positive one.<br />
This film explores the spiritual world, that very<br />
real but unseen realm: God, the human soul,<br />
angels, demons (fallen angels), spiritual warfare,<br />
the reality of demonic possession and exorcism, the<br />
dangers of the new age movement and the occult,<br />
and much more. Featuring well-known speakers<br />
and authors Steve Ray, Fr. Andrew Pinsent, Fr.<br />
Marcus Holden, Joanna Bogle, Fr. Jeremy Davies<br />
and Fr. Behruz Rafat, this film offers an insightful<br />
and sobering presentation about the reality of<br />
the powers and dominions of the spiritual world.<br />
Inspirational music, beautiful artwork and imagery<br />
are used throughout the film.<br />

Excerpts from the Mass of<br />
Canonization of Saint Kateri<br />

A Reflection on Blessed Kateri<br />
Tekakwitha by Fr. Thomas Rosica,<br />
CSB • Theatrical Trailer<br />
In Her Footsteps:<br />
The Story of St. Kateri Tekakwitha<br />
For 350 years, this Christian Mohawk woman<br />
has been interceding for and inspiring natives<br />
and non-natives around the world. On October<br />
2012, Kateri Tekakwitha became the first Native<br />
North American woman to be recognized as a<br />
Saint.<br />
This powerful documentary takes us on a journey<br />
from northern New York State to Montrèal<br />
and Kahnawàke; from Washington State to New<br />
Mexico, as we follow St. Kateri’s incredible journey<br />
of deep faith, heroic sacrifice and great love<br />
of Christ.<br />
The film features many people who have<br />
been touched by her—including Philadelphia’s<br />
Archbishop Charles Chaput, OFM, of the<br />
Prairie Band Potawatomi tribe, the only Native<br />
American archbishop; Bishop James Wall of<br />
Gallup, NM, the diocese with the largest number<br />
of Native American Catholics; Sr. Kateri Mitchell,<br />
SSA, the Executive Director of the Tekakwitha<br />
Conference, and Jake Finkbonner, the little boy<br />
who received the miraculous healing that saved<br />
his life and that led to Kateri’s canonization.<br />
This moving documentary film shows that<br />
no one is too simple, too poor or too young to<br />
give their lives to Christ, and that this woman,<br />
an outcast by her people because of her Catholic<br />
faith, whose face was badly scarred from smallpox<br />
and vision almost lost, is a true model for<br />
modern believers and a powerful source of grace<br />
and healing for all.<br />

Catholics and the Culture War<br />
Catholic apologist and radio host Tim Staples demonstrates how several<br />
minor “battles” over the last 65 years have led to us to where we are<br />
now… in a full-fledged war between two very different schools of thought<br />
when it comes to what society says is right... or wrong. It’s a vivid look at<br />
what America used to be like—and how dramatically we have changed.<br />
The good news is that we can turn this situation around. We can regain<br />
lost ground. We can win the battle for our culture. After watching Catholics<br />
and the Culture War, you will have a much clearer grasp of precisely what<br />
has gone wrong in American society, how we have been betrayed by our<br />
institutions of government, and how we can draw strength from our own<br />
Christian past and Catholic faith to overcome today’s challenges.<br />

Defending Your Faith<br />
How to Counter Standard Objections to Catholicism<br />
Catholic Answers’ Director of Apologetics, Tim Staples, presents some<br />
of the most common challenges to Catholicism, and gives you solid,<br />
Biblically-based answers that you can use to refute them. Along with the<br />
scriptural evidence, Staples also explains the beautifully rational arguments<br />
which make these same teachings come alive in our hearts and<br />
minds.<br />
In offering these common objections, Staples traces his own path—<br />
intellectually and spiritually—from Protestantism to Catholicism.<br />
Answering these sorts of questions, Staples says, “was the first step, for<br />
me, on the road to Rome.” Let Tim show you where the pertinent passages<br />
are that explain the Catholic position, as well as some of the logical<br />
and rhetorical strategies you can use in any situation.<br />

Join popular Catholic teacher Fr. Robert Barron as he answers 50 frequently<br />
asked questions about the Catholic faith on a diverse range of<br />

the spiritual life.<br />
Faith Clips is an interactive tool for anyone who seeks to learn or present<br />
basic theological and spiritual precepts. This DVD is easy to use with<br />
menus that allow you to view an entire topic, such as “Jesus,” or view<br />
each individual question separately within the topic, such as “Why did<br />
Jesus have to die the way he did”<br />
The disc also includes an informal Facilitator’s Guide and graphics for<br />
in-parish presentations. <br />
“Faith Clips is an intelligent and effective tool for those<br />
who strive to spread the Gospel in our culture.”<br />

Chariots of Fire<br />
ased on a true story, Chariots of Fire is the internationally acclaimed<br />
BOscar-winning drama for Best Picture of two very different men<br />
who compete as runners in the 1924 Paris Olympics. Eric Liddell (Ian<br />
Charleson), a serious Christian Scotsman, believes that he has to succeed<br />
as a testament to his undying religious faith. Harold Abrahams<br />
(Ben Cross), is a Jewish Englishman who wants desperately to be<br />
accepted and prove to the world that Jews are not inferior. The film<br />
crosscuts between each man’s life as he trains for the competition,<br />
fueled by these very different desires. Thrilling and compelling as the<br />
racing scenes are, it’s really the depth of the two main characters that<br />
touches the viewer, as they forcefully drive home the theme that victory<br />
attained through devotion, commitment, integrity, and sacrifice<br />
is the most admirable feat that one can achieve.<br />

The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler<br />
This is the compelling story of Polish Catholic social worker, Irena Sendler, one<br />
of the most remarkable, and unlikely, heroes of World War II, saving 2,500 Jewish<br />
children during the Nazi occupation of Poland. She led a group of compatriots<br />
who moved in and out of Warsaw’s Jewish Ghetto dressed as nurses employed by<br />
Warsaw’s Health Department. Realizing that thousands of children were in danger<br />
of sure death, Irena recruited sympathetic friends to help her smuggle children<br />
out and place them in safe homes, farms and convents. At great personal risk, she<br />
devised extraordinary schemes to sneak the children by Nazi guards, bringing<br />
them out in ambulances, suitcases and even wheelbarrows. Irena was eventually<br />
captured by the Gestapo, but even after months of torture, she maintained her<br />
silence. Her heroic efforts were honored by a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize<br />
in 2007. Starring Anna Paquin, Goran Visnjic and Marcia Gay Harden.<br />

Fire of Mercy,<br />
Heart of the Word • vol. iii<br />
Meditations on the Gospel<br />
According to Saint Matthew<br />
Erasmo Leiva-Merikakis<br />
To the unstudied eye, St. Matthew’s gospel can<br />
seem a terse narrative, almost a historical document<br />
and not the tremendously spiritual (and doctrinal)<br />
storehouse that it is. In his third volume of<br />
meditations on Matthew (chapters 19-25), Erasmo<br />
Leiva continues to show Matthew’s prose to be not<br />
terse so much as economical-astoundingly so given<br />
its depth. The lay reader can derive great profit<br />
from reading this. Each short meditation comments<br />
on a verse or two, pointing to some facet of the text<br />
not immediately apparent, but rich with meaning.<br />
Leiva’s work is scholarly but eminently<br />
approachable by the lay reader. The tone is very<br />
much of “taste and see how good the Lord is” and<br />
an invitation of “friend, come up higher!”. The goal<br />
of the book is to help the reader experience the heat<br />
of the divine heart and the light of the divine Word.<br />
Leiva comments on the Greek text, demonstrating<br />
nuances in the text that defy translation. He<br />
uses numerous quotes from the Fathers and the<br />
Liturgy of the Church to demonstrate the way the<br />
Tradition has lived and read the Word of God. His<br />
theological reflection vivifies doctrine by seeking<br />
its roots in the words and actions of Jesus.<br />
“This is a biblical commentary with scholarship<br />
and, above all, a prayerfulness that is a great gift<br />
to the Church. ” — Sr. Wendy Beckett, OCD<br />
Erasmo Leiva-Merikakis, Ph.D., was formerly a<br />
Professor of Literature and Theology at the University<br />
of San Francisco. Now a Trappist monk, he is<br />
the author of Vols. 1 & 2 of Fire of Mercy, plus The<br />

A Sense of the Sacred<br />
Roman Catholic Worship<br />
in the Middle Ages<br />
James Monti<br />
This incomparable volume presents a comprehensive<br />
exploration and explanation of medieval<br />
liturgical celebrations. The reverent prayers,<br />
hymns and rubrics used in the Middle Ages are<br />
described in detail and interpreted through the<br />
commentary of scholars from the same time period,<br />
the era which is also known as the “Age of Faith”.<br />
Collected here is a wide range of ceremonies,<br />
encompassing the seven sacraments, the major<br />
feasts of the liturgical year (such as Christmas,<br />
Easter, and Corpus Christi), and special liturgical<br />
rites (from the coronation of the pope to the blessing<br />
of expectant mothers). The sacred celebrations<br />
have been drawn from countries across western<br />
and central Europe—from Portugal to Poland—but<br />
particular attention has been given to liturgical<br />
texts of medieval Spain, which until now have<br />
received relatively little attention from scholars.<br />
Historian James Monti has done exhaustive<br />
research on medieval liturgical manuscripts, early<br />
printed missals, and the writings of medieval liturgists<br />
and theologians so that the treasures they<br />
contain can inspire a sense of the sacred in future<br />
generations of Catholics.<br />
“James Monti’s treatise is an astonishing<br />
achievement, a book that can and will shape a<br />
new generation of intellectuals who are serious<br />
about the Catholic liturgy. Despite the title, this<br />
book is not only about medieval liturgy. It’s<br />
about inspiring the creation of, and the provision<br />
of access to, truly sacred spaces in our time, even<br />
in a world that seems so barren of them.”<br />
Jeffrey Tucker, Managing Editor, Sacred Music<br />
James Monti is an author and historian who has<br />
contributed numerous articles to Catholic publications,<br />
including the monthly missal Magnificat. His<br />
other books include The King’s Good Servant But<br />
God’s First: The Life & Writings of St. Thomas More,<br />
The Week of Salvation and In the Presence of Our Lord.<br />

Contemplative Provocations<br />
Father Donald Haggerty<br />
great many religious people undertake, at least<br />
A for a time, a serious dedication to prayer. They<br />
are moved by a longing for a deeper encounter<br />
with God, and the possibility of this beckons them<br />
as a distant light at night on the sea. Yet far fewer<br />
in number become true contemplative souls, for it<br />
is difficult to continue the quest for God in the face<br />
of many obstacles.<br />
For those who are spiritually courageous and<br />
full of desire for God, this book cannot but provoke<br />
them to begin or to persevere in this ultimate<br />
adventure in life—the more complete discovery<br />
of the living God. Thematically unified by the<br />
notion of God’s ultimate transcendence to our limited<br />
human knowledge, Contemplative Provocations<br />
offers a rich profusion of insights on the life of<br />
prayer and the pursuit of God.<br />
A key to spiritual growth is the understanding<br />
that the hiddenness of God becomes a paradox in<br />
the experience of a soul seeking him wholeheartedly.<br />
Rather than enjoying a more intimate familiarity<br />
with God, the soul advancing in prayer is likely<br />
to experience more intensely, more provocatively,<br />
the concealment of God. This surprising truth<br />
undergirds true contemplative prayer. It is a reason<br />
why every contemplative soul, and every saint, is<br />
inflamed with a never satisfied thirst for God.<br />
“This is a masterful work. It contains a tremendous<br />
amount of very helpful spiritual advice.”<br />
Fr. Joseph Koterski, S.J., Fordham University<br />
“The work has the feel and style of a spiritual<br />
classic, and I hope it will be recognized as one.”<br />

How NOT to Share Your Faith<br />
The Seven Deadly Sins of Catholic<br />
Apologetics and Evangelization<br />
Mark Brumley<br />
Catholic apologetics is bigger than ever. It’s<br />
everywhere. As a professional apologist, Mark<br />
Brumley sees this renaissance as an immensely<br />
good thing—an essential part of the Church’s evangelical<br />
mission.<br />
But often times untrained apologists can undermine<br />
arguments for the faith and drive people<br />
farther away from the truth.<br />
In How NOT to Share Your Faith: The Seven<br />
Deadly Sins of Catholic Apologetics and Evangelization,<br />
Brumley describes seven of the most common and<br />
tragic mistakes he and other apologists have made<br />
over the years in their attempts to defend and<br />
explain the Catholic faith.<br />
More importantly, he reveals how you can avoid<br />
these mistakes and become far more effective at<br />
sharing your faith in a charitable way—even if that<br />
means losing an argument from time to time.<br />
“Mark Brumley is articulate, persuasive,<br />
balanced and sensible, and the spirit he brings<br />
to this marvelously readable, useful work<br />
demonstrates Catholic apologetics at its best.”<br />
Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap.,<br />
Archbishop of Philadelphia<br />
“This book should be required reading for all<br />
amateur and professional Catholic apologists. It<br />
is genuinely useful and totally trustworthy.”<br />
Peter Kreeft,<br />
author, Handbook of Catholic Apologetics<br />
Mark Brumley, a convert to Catholicism, has<br />
taught and lectured about the faith in a wide range<br />
of forums, including as an adjunct professor for the<br />
Institute for Pastoral Theology of Ave Maria University.<br />

What is Marriage Man and Woman: A Defense<br />
Robert George, Sherif Girgis, Ryan Anderson<br />
Until today, no society had seen marriage as anything other<br />
than a conjugal partnership: a male-female union. What Is<br />
Marriage identifies and defends the reasons for this historic consensus<br />
and shows why redefining civil marriage is unnecessary,<br />
unreasonable, and contrary to the common good.<br />
This book’s core argument has already been cited and debated<br />
by scholars and activists throughout the world as the most<br />
formidable defense of the tradition ever written. It stands<br />
poised to meet its moment as few books of this generation<br />
have. Rhodes Scholar Sherif Girgis, Heritage Foundation Fellow<br />
Ryan Anderson, and Princeton Professor Robert George offer a<br />
devastating critique of the idea that equality requires redefining<br />
marriage. They show why both sides must first answer the question<br />
of what marriage really is. They defend the principle that<br />
marriage, as a comprehensive union of mind and body ordered to<br />
family life, unites a man and a woman as husband and wife, and<br />
they document the social value of applying this principle in law.<br />
Most compellingly, they show that those who embrace same-sex<br />
civil marriage leave no firm ground—none—for not recognizing<br />
every relationship describable in polite English, including polyamorous<br />
sexual unions, and that enshrining their view would further<br />
erode the norms of marriage, and hence the common good.<br />

Saint Barbara<br />
Convert & Martyr of the Early Church<br />
In 303 A.D., Barbara is the beautiful, twenty-yearold<br />
daughter of Dioscoro, the Roman governor<br />
during a time of fierce Christian persecution. Barbara<br />
is a pagan, but when Giuliana, a slave raised alongside<br />
her almost like a sister, is condemned to death<br />
for her Christian faith, Barbara rebels.<br />
She valiantly attempts to save Giuliana, as well as<br />
other Christians being persecuted, boldly protesting<br />
to her father and other government leaders. When<br />
that fails, Barbara makes a daring plan for the successful<br />
escape from prison of her Christian friends.<br />
Saint Barbara is also the story of her profound<br />
love for Claudio, the noble Roman soldier whose<br />
life she saves, as well as her deep compassion for all<br />
afflicted humanity. The courageous and holy witness<br />
of her Christian friends inspires her to convert<br />
to their religion, a decision which will eventually<br />
cost Barbara her life.<br />
Before her death, Barbara discovers she has journeyed<br />
down the same path as her mother, who was<br />
taken from her as a child for having made the same<br />
choice, to become a Christian, which had never been<br />
told to Barbara as she was growing up.<br />
Barbara is the victim of many acts of cruelty in<br />
the last period of her life. The serenity with which<br />
she overcomes such barbarity can only be attributed<br />
to her new faith in Christ, which gives her the<br />
strength necessary to face the most difficult trials<br />
and to forgive her persecutors.<br />
Set in the Empire Studios, reproducing ancient<br />
Rome, Saint Barbara recreates authentic atmosphere<br />
and a realistic sense of the the time period, mingling<br />
historical and some fictional characters.<br />
Starring Vanessa Hessler, Thomas Trabacchi,<br />

with the stories and history of famous Catholic<br />
saints, apparitions, Popes, and holy places, and some<br />
amazing findings from these studies. This DVD<br />
includes three separate films.<br />
The Secret of Bernadette<br />
An exploration into the apparitions of Our Lady of<br />
Lourdes to Bernadette Soubirous in 1858, as well as<br />
into the character and holiness of St. Bernadette, the<br />
secret of what made her such a great saint, and the<br />
incredible reality of her beautiful, incorrupt body<br />
130 years after her death. Includes glorious footage<br />
and photography of Lourdes, and Nevers where<br />
Bernadette lived as a nun in the order of the Sisters<br />
of Charity. This film also reveals the little-known<br />

and of St. Catherine Laboure, and the Shrine of the<br />
Miraculous Medal in Paris where St. Catherine had<br />
her apparitions.<br />
The Pope of Mercy<br />
Tells the story of the deep relationship between Pope<br />
John Paul II and St. Faustina Kowalska, the Polish<br />
nun whose visions in the early 20th century were the<br />
origin of the incredible worldwide diffusion of the<br />
Divine Mercy devotion. The Pope and the nun never<br />
met in person, and yet their stories are so profoundly<br />
intertwined that they significantly marked the entire<br />
pontificate of Karol Wojtyla, who established the<br />
feast of Divine Mercy and died on the eve of that<br />
feast in 2005.<br />

Ethiopians have claimed to have this most soughtafter<br />
relic in history, housed in the Church of Our<br />
Lady of Zion in Axum, and how they carefully guard<br />
it from the world because it is such a sacred and<br />
mysterious object. Hear the testimony of an Italian<br />

Padre Pro<br />
Blessed Miguel Pro: Martyr of Mexico<br />
This movie is the inspiring story of the famous Father Miguel<br />
Pro, S.J., who was executed in Mexico in 1927 for the crime of<br />
being a Catholic priest. This young Jesuit spent most of his<br />
short life in the priesthood dodging the Mexican police as he<br />
ministered to the underground Church during the Mexican<br />
Revolution. Fr. Pro’s quick wit and keen sense of humor<br />
were put to good use as he pedaled around Mexico City on<br />
his bicycle in various disguises, en route to administering<br />
the Sacraments, giving spiritual talks or begging food and<br />
money for the poor. But behind the disguises beat the heart<br />
of a saint—as the Mexican people testified by turning out in<br />
throngs to pay their last respects after his martyrdom. Fr. Pro<br />
offered his life for the Catholic Faith and his last words on this<br />
earth were: “Viva Cristo Rey”—Long live Christ the King!<br />
This powerful movie makes history come alive and highlights<br />
the dramatic conflict between the Church and her<br />
enemies that continues even to this day. An inspiring film for<br />
the whole family, this is an incredible true story of a modern<br />
Catholic hero who proclaimed both in life and death the reign<br />
of Christ the King. In Spanish with English subtitles.<br />

audiences know they are in for a powerful screen<br />
experience. To such films as The Grapes of Wrath, My Darling<br />
Clementine and Fort Apache add this brave, unsparing, magnificently<br />
lensed (by Mexico’s Gabriel Figueroa) work. Based<br />
on Graham Greene’s novel The Power and the Glory, the story<br />
follows a priest (Fonda) in Latin America pursued by a ruthless<br />
police lieutenant carrying out the dictates of an oppressive,<br />
anti-clerical government. There’s another fugitive as<br />
well: an American killer on the run—and the paths of the<br />
two hunted men cross with fateful consequences. A haunting<br />
paean to the resilience of faith, The Fugitive remains a filmmaking<br />

As the curtain rises, Hannah hesitantly steps onto the stage<br />
for her theatrical debut in college. Yet before she can utter<br />
her first lines, Hannah—unscripted—collapses in front of the<br />
stunned audience.<br />
After countless medical tests, all signs point to one underlying<br />
factor: Hannah’s difficult birth. This revelation is nothing compared<br />
to what she then learns from her parents: she was actually<br />
adopted ... after a failed abortion attempt.<br />
Bewildered, angered, and confused, Hannah turns for support<br />
to Jason, her oldest friend. Encouraged by his adventurous spirit,<br />
Hannah joins his group of friends on a Spring Break road trip,<br />
embarking on a journey to discover her hidden past... and find<br />

In the midst of her incredible journey, Hannah finds that life<br />
can be so much more than what you have planned. A strong cast<br />

Hostia The Power and Presence of the Eucharist<br />
This powerful and inspiring film begins with the Gospel accounts of how Jesus<br />
Christ instituted the Eucharist. It explains how the sacrifices and offerings in the<br />
Old Testament prefigured the perfect and final sacrifice in Jesus Christ Himself—<br />
the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. The constant belief of<br />
Christians in the Real Presence throughout history is clearly demonstrated along<br />
with examples of heroic witnesses for the faith. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass<br />
is explained as the center of the Christian life where Jesus becomes truly present<br />
in the Eucharist. The practices of Eucharistic Adoration and Benediction are<br />
presented as the real power behind any evangelization and essential to reviving<br />
faith in every Catholic parish. Featuring Fr. Nicholas Schofield, Fr. Tim Finigan,<br />

Kabul 24<br />
In the summer of 2001, eight aid workers in Kabul, Afghanistan, were arrested<br />
by the Taliban and accused of spreading Christianity. Their captivity and trial<br />
drew international outrage and fiery debate: Were they aid workers or missionaries<br />
Is it ethical to proselytize in Muslim countries where the law forbids it<br />
Were they, in fact, getting what they deserved<br />
As events would prove, the truth behind their arrest was far more sinister<br />
than the world before September 11, 2001, could ever have imagined. Six years<br />
in the making, Kabul 24 takes you around the globe to reveal the personal stories<br />
behind the eight Western prisoners and their sixteen Afghan coworkers who<br />
were thrust into the international spotlight. Follow their amazing saga as they<br />
endure 105 days of harrowing captivity, the bombing of Kabul, a sham Supreme<br />
Court trial, and a rescue as suspense-filled and miraculous as the story itself.<br />

Sister Pascalina Lehnert, Secretary of Pius XII<br />
his is the amazing story of Sister Pascalina Lehnert (1894-1983) who was<br />
Tthe personal confidant and secretary to Pope Pius XII for 40 years. In<br />
1918, the young nun Pascalina is sent to Munich to be the housekeeper of<br />
the new Papal Nuncio, Eugenio Pacelli. Though they seem to have little<br />
in common, Pacelli becomes impressed by Pascalina’s directness, zeal and<br />
alertness. But when he is appointed Cardinal Secretary of State in 1929,<br />
Pacelli moves to Vatican City—where women are forbidden to live.<br />
Pascalina is missed, and she is invited to work in the Vatican—the<br />
first woman ever to do so. At the outbreak of war, Pacelli is elected Pope<br />
and becomes Pius XII. As the war tears Europe apart, the Pope puts<br />
his life, and the papacy itself, on the line by opposing the Nazis and<br />
fascists. Thanks to the fearlessness of Rome’s clergy and the tirelessness<br />
of Pascalina, he manages to save the lives of many Roman Jews. Sister<br />
Pascalina remains at the Pope’s side until his death in 1958—God’s<br />
mighty servant to the end. Starring Christine Neubauer, Remo Girone,<br />

Buck<br />
“Your horse is a mirror<br />
to your soul, and sometimes<br />
you may not like<br />
what you see. Sometimes,<br />
you will.” So says Buck<br />
Brannaman, a true<br />
American cowboy and<br />

travels the country helping<br />
horses with people<br />
problems. This stunning<br />
film follows Brannaman<br />
from his abusive childhood<br />

successful approach to<br />
horses. A real-life “horse-whisperer”, he teaches<br />
people to communicate with their horses through<br />
leadership and sensitivity, not punishment. Winner<br />
of the Heartland “Truly Moving Picture” Award<br />
“One of the year’s best and most inspiring films.<br />
Gorgeous, appealing and moving. Don’t miss it!”<br />

Life After Abortion<br />
Countless women (and<br />
men) have been overwhelmed<br />
by post abortion<br />
trauma, resulting<br />
in fear, anxiety, pain,<br />
and guilt. Many suffer<br />

relatively few help women cope with the aftermath<br />

After Abortion takes an honest look at the undeniable<br />
impact abortion has had on real people. Hosted by<br />
Carol Everett, Alveda King and others.<br />

Born in a village in Sudan, kidnapped<br />

and abused, and later sold<br />
to Federico Marin, a Venetian<br />
merchant, Bakhita comes to<br />
Italy and becomes the nanny<br />
servant of Federico’s daughter,<br />
Aurora. She is treated as an<br />

the other servants, but Bakhita<br />
is kind and generous to others<br />
and gradually comes closer to<br />
God. She requests to join the Canossian sisters, but<br />
Marin doesn’t want to give her up as his servant,<br />
