Voices of Holy Cross: Stories of Hope
Members of the Congregation of Holy Cross and their lay collaborators from all over the world tell stories from their hearts about how the charism and mission of Holy Cross help them to make God known, loved and served from Portland to Bangladesh and lots of places in between. Each 20 minute episode offers vivid glimpses of ordinary men and women doing extraordinary things, "crossing borders of every sort," as the Constitutions of Holy Cross call each of us to do, in the spirit of our founder, Blessed Basil Moreau.

Br. Philip Smith CSC: Exercising Zeal (And a Healthy Dose of Patience)
Brother Philip Smith CSC is the archivist for the Midwest Province of Holy Cross Brothers. In his first few months on that job, with a little push from the Holy Spirit urging him to "look up and to the right," he discovered over 6000 letters between Br. Columba O'Neill and others, documenting thousands of cures, which convinced him to pursue Columba's case for sainthood. Due largely to Br. Philip's zeal and patient effort, Br. Columba O'Neill has recently been named a Servant of God.
