Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Champions of Faith

I feel sure this dvd must have come up on this site before, but I could not find it in a search. We recently watched it. Wow- what a great testimony!
It features several players and managers in major league baseball sharing their faith.

There are some miraculous stories... I kept having to try not to cry.
And also- I am just laughing- there is a surprise appearance by St. Therese.
I had no idea she would pop up. I always tell my ds that she is keeping tabs on him, and he always scoffs at the idea, but there she was...

Anyway- a great show. I bought my copy new on ebay for about $2, so look there first if you have to buy it.

Melinda,

Several years back, we watched this dvd and were so taken with it we bought a bunch of copies for friends and family for Christmas presents! :)

Mike Sweeny and some other well-known Catholic athletes live here in San Diego and are close with a religious order that we are close with. So, our elbow have rubbed in very small ways. :)

Trevor Hoffman is one and is a recent convert. He's not in the video, but his story is great as well.

I was totally teary-eyed watching.

So cool, Erica!

I was inspired to get a couple of Mike Sweeny's Light House cds, which are also very good.

It's a small world!
