September 25: ST. SERGIUS OF RADONEZH: The Boy Who Couldn't Read
Catholic Sprouts: Daily Podcast for Catholic Kids
St. Sergius of Radonezh couldn't read a single word — until a mysterious stranger in a field changed everything. A boy who struggled painfully with his studies, Bartholomew was blessed by a mysterious elder who gave him holy bread — and he could read fluently from that day on. He took the name Sergius as a monk, built a wilderness hermitage that grew into Russia's most important monastery, and turned down the country's highest Church office to stay a simple monk. "God fills in exactly what we lack, if we trust Him." Want to keep living Sergius's story after the episode ends?
