On May 18, we celebrate for the last time the feast day of Blessed Stanislaus Papczynski, the Founder of the Marian Fathers. That's because on June 5 he will become Saint Stanislaus Papczynski.

Watch the feast day homily given by the Very Rev. Fr. Kazimierz Chwalek, MIC, the Marians' provincial superior. His homily was delivered during the 7:15 a.m. Mass at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
