One of the most famous stories of Mother Angelica: She ordered a $600,000 satellite but didn't have the money to pay for it. When the delivery truck arrived, she still didn't have the money, so she went to the chapel to pray, "‘You know, Lord, I guess I've messed this up." Mother Angelica thought that perhaps she had not fully understood God’s will, and out of desperation, prayed, “Is there anything You could do to help me with this?” There was. One of Mother Angelica’s nuns came to the chapel, saying that there was a man on the phone who wanted to speak to her. Initially, Mother Angelica brushed her off, and then changed her mind and answered the call. The man on the other end of the call was on a yacht in the Caribbean. His son, who was struggling with drug addiction, had come across one of Mother Angelica’s mini-books, and that book prompted him to enter rehab and change his life around. The man wanted to make a donation to Mother Angelica out of gratitude for what she did for his son. And so he said, "I want to send you $600,000,” which happened to be the exact amount needed for the satellite dish. "Do you think you could wire transfer that to me?" He did, and that satellite dish still stands on EWTN's main campus today, and has been the principal uplink antenna to broadcast EWTN’s programming around the world. These are the kinds of stories we share time and time again because they're the stories of our EWTN Family's legacy and our humble beginnings. We want to share that with you at the EWTN Family Celebration in Tysons, VA on August 30! Get all the details and save your spot at

When we grieve, suffer, or hurt, what good is in that? As we're filled with sadness over the assasination of Charlie Kirk, the murder of Iryna Zarutska, the memorial of 9/11, the countless school shootings, catastrophic natural disasters, bloody religious persecution, and the endless conflicts and wars across the world, we wonder - Where is God, and what good could possibly come about? Mother Angelica, who was no stranger to pain, illness, suffering, and sorrow, reflects on the awesome goodness of God and how we can unite our suffering to His. Evil does not have the final word, and the Lamb is victorious. Tell us how we can pray with/for you here.

Have you heard of Our Lady of Kibeho? She appeared to Rwandan schoolchildren in the 1980s, and those apparitions were approved by the Church in 2001. Her message conveyed an urgency in the world repenting and making reparations for sins against her Son. She encouraged people to pray the Rosary and the Seven Sorrows Rosary, and she's sometimes called Our Lady of Sorrows of Kibeho.
