EWTN GLOBAL SHOWCASE
SOLANUS CASEY: PRIEST, PORTER, PROPHET (90:00)Born in 1870 and baptized Bernard Francis Casey, he went no further than grammar school. As a result, he was educationally handicapped when he entered seminary and was dismissed in his fourth year. He eventually entered the Capuchin order, taking the name Solanus, and was ordained as a simplex, or Mass, priest. He was never allowed to preach or hear confessions. In Yonkers, NY, he was assigned the humble duties of sacristan and porter. Soon, however, his charismatic gift of healing and prophecy began to manifest themselves. The people flocked to him, so much so that as his health declined, he had to be moved to a rural monastery in Indiana … to which busloads of people came down from Detroit. Following his death in 1957, he was subsequently exhumed and found to be incorrupt. He was pronounced Venerable to Pope John Paul II in 1995.

They are represented by 11,000 members all over the world and now, primarily, tend to serve the sick and needy.

Host Fr. Benedict Groeschel turns our attention toward the most “American of all purposed candidates for Sainthood, Fr. Nelson Baker or properly known as Monsignor Baker. Monsignor Baker has all of the elements of the American way of life right after the frontier - an energetic businessman, a man with a keen business sense, not afraid to take a chance. If you read his life, you come away with the impression that if he hadn’t been a saint, he would have been a multimillionaire! As it was, he died broke, but he did a great many things.”
