| 0:00.0 | This is the Movement of the Holy Family. |
| 0:03.0 | Welcome to our Rosary Meditation. |
| 0:06.0 | St. Maximilian Colby is a close friend of mine and a powerful saint for our age. |
| 0:12.0 | Over the next few days, I want you to get to know him and his story, |
| 0:18.0 | which I think will set your heart on fire for the love of God, for our lady, |
| 0:23.2 | and for the salvation of your loved ones. So let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the |
| 0:28.2 | Holy Spirit. Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for, especially the healing |
| 0:32.8 | of Olivia and Margo through the intercession of Blessed Pauline Jericho. |
| 0:39.8 | Maximilian Colby was born the second son of a poor weaver in 1894 in Zedunka, |

| 1:14.4 | what took place. When my mother cried, what will become of you? I prayed often to the |
| 1:22.3 | Madonna to tell me what I would become. One day in church I begged her again, and she appeared to me, |
| 1:30.6 | holding two crowns. The one white, the other red. The white meant that I would stay pure, |
| 1:39.7 | the red that I would be a martyr. She asked me which one I wanted. Both, I replied. Then the |
| 1:48.5 | Madonna smiled and disappeared. Our Father who art in heaven, hallow it be your name. By kingdom come, |
| 1:56.9 | thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our |
| 2:02.6 | trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us |
| 2:10.8 | from evil. Amen. Hail Mary, full of grace the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women. Blessed |
| 2:16.6 | is a fruit of thy womb, Jesus. |
