A Patron Saint of Television?
Yes, there is a patron Saint of television and today, August 11, is her feast day! St. Clare, disciple of St. Francis of Assisi, was so ill one Christmas that she could not attend mass, but the Lord miraculously made it possible for her to hear and see mass although it was taking place miles away.
Today, through the modern “miracle” of television and radio and the worldwide web, millions are hearing and seeing programming that is helping to sustain and increase their faith. The Crossroads Initiative in this month of August will touch countless people all over the world through international radio broadcasts and a TV series on the Eternal Word Television network on the Early Church Fathers. Two to three thousands persons will come to our website per day to feed their own faith and get resources to share with their families, schools and parishes.
All this is provided as a free service – we are not paid a dime, but it costs us a great deal to make it all available.
