Hundreds gathered on Sunday, June 22, 2025, at The Shrine of St Anthony in Ellicott City, Md., for the concluding Mass of the Marian Apostolate Relic Tour. Friar Jobe Abbass, OFM Conv., spoke to an overflowing crowd about the lives of St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Faustina Kowalska, and St. Pope John Paul II.
The pilgrims were encouraged to become who they receive, Jesus Christ, today on the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. The three Saints, who received our Lord in the Eucharist, lived out their vocation to be the presence of Jesus in the world. Their lives were broken and poured out for love of God’s people.
