About this listen
Today marks Day 100 of Saints in a Year, and the Church honors St. Jerome Emiliani, a former soldier whose dramatic conversion led him to dedicate his life to abandoned children, orphans, and the poor.
In this episode of Saints in a Year, Saul reflects on the life of St. Jerome Emiliani. You will learn how suffering sparked his conversion, why he trusted completely in God’s providence, how charity shaped lasting institutions, and why no past is beyond redemption.
📖 Scripture
Isaiah 1:17
“Learn to do good; seek justice, rescue the oppressed, defend the orphan.”
💬 Thought to Remember
“Turn to God with your whole heart.”
Reflection:
St. Jerome Emiliani reminds us that God does not waste suffering. When we surrender fully, even our past becomes a source of grace.
🙏 Prayer
St. Jerome Emiliani, pray for us. Help us trust God with our past, love those in need, and live lives transformed by mercy. Amen.
