"St. André Bessette, also known as the “Miracle Man of Montreal,” lived from 1845 through 1937. During that time, he witnessed the ravages of World War I, a highly contagious Spanish flu pandemic, and the suffering of many during the Great Depression.
"Yet, through it all, he kept his faith in God and devoted himself even more to St. Joseph."
In a recent commentary, writer Philip Kosloski
reflected on St. André Bessette, whose memory the Church celebrates today (6 January), and his simplicity of heart.

Editor's note: Years ago, when I was teaching at what was then Saint Patrick School in Providence, RI, on of my fellow teachers was Louise Barba, who is a distant relative of St. André.
