Father Solanus Casey, Revised and Updated

Fr. Solanus Casey (1870-1957) - Wisconsin native, Capuchin friar, and miracle worker - lived this motto throughout his life. By his gentle, cheerful example, he taught others to have that same trust in God. Wherever he was sent - whether to parishes in New York City or monasteries in Detroit and small-town Huntington, Indiana - Fr. Casey was widely sought for his wise counsel, powerful prayers, and miraculous healings. Visitors flocked to the humble monastery doorkeeper, seeking physical cures, advice, and spiritual renewal. Thousands of mourners attended his funeral in July 1957, hailing him as a modern saint.
