The Saint Challenge Day 15 – St. Albert the Great – November 15

Albert was born in modern-day Germany in 1206 and joined the Dominicans in 1223. After completing his theological studies, he was sent to various universities around Europe to teach theology. Notably, one of his students was St. Thomas Aquinas, whose intellect Albert recognized immediately and helped nurture. In addition to theology, St. Albert became well known for his mastery of scholastic philosophy and natural sciences like biology and botany. His many works left a wide-ranging and lasting impact, and they earned him the title of Doctor of the Church.

CHALLENGE

The more time goes on, the more natural science proves the Catholic faith and what the Catholic Church teaches. Today, open a web browser and in your favorite search engine, look up the following phrase: “scientific proof of eucharistic miracles”, then read some of the stories about miraculous transformations of the Eucharist into human flesh and blood, and the science that proves what faith teaches.
