| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:14.4 | Hey there, Sprouts. Today is Wednesday, February 6, 2019. It is also the feast day of St. Paul Mickey of Japan and his 26 companions that were martyred with him. This week on the Catholic Sprouts podcast, we are talking about how we need to trust in God's plan, how we are not called |
| 0:40.5 | to the easy and comfortable life, but we are called to follow God and make sure that each |
| 0:46.9 | and every activity of our day brings glory to him and not just comfort to us. |
| 0:54.0 | Our first profound example of a saint that really did trust in God's to him and not just comfort to us. |
| 1:00.2 | Our first profound example of a saint that really did trust in God's plan was St. Agatha, |
| 1:02.9 | an early Christian martyr that we talked about yesterday. |
| 1:09.2 | And together we marveled at how God used the small in the week to spread faith in his church throughout the world. |

| 1:47.4 | that live there. They do ancestor worship and different sorts of worship, but they are not Christian. |
| 1:54.7 | There are certain Christians that live in Japan, of course, now. But at the time that this St. Paul |
| 2:00.2 | lived, there really were not very many Christians. |
| 2:03.1 | The Christian faith had just barely been brought to the island of Japan. |
| 2:10.8 | St. Paul, though, and his father both converted to Christianity, and they quickly fell in love |
| 2:16.5 | with the beauty and truth of the Christian |
| 2:18.4 | Church. St. Paul joined a secret seminary and was busy studying for the priesthood. However, like many |
| 2:26.4 | places where Christianity is brought and spread in secret, it was a crime to be a Christian. |
| 2:32.8 | The Japanese did not like to see the spread of the Christian |
| 2:35.3 | faith because they felt like it was Western influence, that the influences of places like |
