How does a mischievous troublemaker become a great saint? When Saint Maximilian Kolbe was a young boy, his mother lost his patience with his bad behavior and remarked, "I don't know what's going to become of you!" The comment stunned him. Turning to prayer, he asked the Blessed Mother, "What will become of me?" The Blessed Mother appeared to him with an answer that would change his life forever. Maximilian Kolbe was a Conventual Fransiscan, a philosopher and theologian, a budding scientist and engineer who experimented with plans for rocket ships, and a publisher of a religious magazine. But he was best known for his love for the Blessed Mother and for giving his life to save a fellow prisoner at the concentration camp in Auschwitz. Meet the remarkable saint who shows us how devotion to Mary sustains us through any difficulty and helps us love without counting the cost.
