| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:30.5 | Hey there, Sprouts. Today is Thursday, November 19th, 2020. This week on the Catholic Sprouts we are talking about the truth of Jesus Christ. He is the truth. He is the rock upon which we stand, and he is the light that |
| 0:42.5 | enables us to see what is true and real in the world and not get too selfish and not be |
| 0:49.2 | blinded to the needs of others as we saw through the example yesterday of St. Elizabeth of Hungary. |
| 0:56.5 | Now, today we are celebrating yet another female saint with yet another perspective for us |
| 1:03.4 | on how we can live when we know that Jesus Christ is the truth. Now, today's saint is St. Agnes of Assisi. Now, not very many people |
| 1:15.4 | have heard of St. Agnes of Assisi. She's not St. Agnes of Rome, who was an early Christian |
| 1:23.0 | martyr. She's not her. But you probably know of St. Agnes's older sister, St. Clair of Assisi. |
| 1:30.4 | St. Clair, of course, was a great friend of St. Francis. She ran away from home. And she founded what is now |

| 1:46.7 | cloistered from the world really focused on being with Jesus through his suffering and |
| 1:52.4 | prayer. So that's her sister, St. Clair. And St. Agnes was the younger, lesser-known sister. |
| 2:00.6 | Now, what we can see through the life of St. Agnes of Assisi, |
| 2:04.8 | is that when we accept that Jesus Christ's truth, |
| 2:09.1 | we not only will have the light of his truth shining on the world around us, |
| 2:14.4 | but we will have the light of his truth shining on who we are. |
| 2:21.7 | Just like we can be confused and think that maybe poor people aren't valuable, that's a lie. |
| 2:29.3 | But we can also think that there's something wrong with us or that we aren't as valuable as another person. |
| 2:38.1 | This is something that St. Agnes very clearly could have believed. |
| 2:42.3 | Her sister, Claire, continues to be the one that we know. |
| 2:46.1 | And this is the way she grew up also. |
| 2:48.8 | Claire was the one bold enough to make a friendship with Francis. Claire ran away |
