| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:16.0 | Hey there, Spouts. Today is Friday, August 23rd, 2019. This week on the Catholic Spouts podcast, |
| 0:26.3 | we have been talking about saints who celebrated their feast days over the summer. We've talked |
| 0:31.4 | about St. Maria Guretti, St. Kittiri Tecahwitha, St. Germain Cousins. And yesterday we talked about St. Anne and St. Joachum, |
| 0:41.1 | the parents of Mary, on the great feast day, the queenship of Mary. Today, we are going to actually |
| 0:47.8 | talk about a saint who is celebrating a feast day today. That saint is St. Rose of Lima. Now, before we talk about St. Rose of Lima's |
| 0:59.0 | life, I want to give you a little warning. St. Rose of Lima lived a very intense life. She chose |
| 1:07.8 | strict and oftentimes painful penances out of love for Jesus. |
| 1:15.1 | Now, we might not all be called to live the strict penance-filled life that Rose of Lima did, |
| 1:22.8 | but I don't want you to completely write off what you hear about her. |

| 1:42.4 | or accepting penances can be a very beautiful path to holiness. |
| 1:49.4 | We need to always evaluate what these are and do them under the direction of a spiritual |
| 1:55.9 | director, but choosing to suffer for Jesus can be a beautiful thing. So here is a little bit about |
| 2:04.5 | St. Rose of Lima. St. Rose of Lima was born in Lima, Peru, which is in South America, |
| 2:11.7 | and she lived at the end of the 1500s in the beginning of the 1600s, so nearly 400 years ago. As you can imagine, |
| 2:21.3 | life was a little bit different than. She was born to a family that was prestigious, but |
| 2:28.0 | wasn't necessarily very wealthy. From a very young age, Rose was seen as being spectacularly beautiful. In fact, her real |
| 2:38.6 | name wasn't even Rose. She simply got that nickname because she was so beautiful, as beautiful as |
| 2:44.9 | a rose. She eventually changed her name to Rose because that's what everyone called her. |
| 2:53.0 | Even as a child, she started to take on very strict penances. She would kneel for a long amount of time, pray for a long |
