Compline (night prayer) - Saturday, 14 August 2021

Maximilian Kolbe - A Franciscan 'intellectual, imprisoned in Auschwitz, exchanged places with a prisoner sentenced to die. The man lived to tell the tale of Kolbe's action and having been given his life back, vowed to live differently.

We were dead until Jesus gave His life for us - may we live differently too.
