This past week, I had the privilege of making a pilgrimage to the shrine of Bl. Stanley Rother in Oklahoma City. I was accompanied by a lay leader within the diocese as well as two of our priests. It was especially meaningful, because we arrived on July 28, his feast day.
“American Martyr: The Stanley Rother Story,” scheduled to be released in theaters nationwide Aug. 26-27, tells the story of Blessed Stanley Rother through those who knew him — parishioners, catechists, and family members — as well as those currently involved in his cause for canonization.
