0:00.0	You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:28.7	What's up, sproutsouts? Today is May 6th and the feast day of St. Dominic Savio.
0:36.4	I am Luke Kellwig, back with you for one more day to wrap up our discussion about being called to be a missionary.
0:40.2	And our saint today is a great example of how we're never too young to be a missionary and to make a difference in the lives of others. St. Dominic Savio was a young
0:47.7	boy. And from early in his youth, he just had a great devotion to prayer and a desire to be a saint. He actually,
0:56.2	at the age of seven, requested to be able to receive his first Holy Communion, which at the time,
1:01.2	he had to wait until you were 12. And the priests and the bishops were so impressed by his knowledge

1:45.0	That probably won't work.
1:46.8	But can you each and every day grow closer to Christ?
1:50.4	Can you desire to be a saint?
1:52.7	And while doing that, keep your eye out for other people that God might be calling you
1:57.6	to share that desire to be a saint with.
2:03.0	So today's episode, what we're going to do is I'm just going to walk through five final tips with a few stories sprinkled in to just help us
2:09.2	kind of wrap up this desire to be a missionary. So the first tip is eternity is worth the awkwardness. And what does that mean? What I mean is that sometimes
2:20.9	we have to be willing to be silly or to make a fool of ourselves or to go talk to someone that we
