Saint Martin De Porres DVD
He was born in Lima Peru in 1579, out of wedlock and to parents of different races. Initially unable to join the Dominicans because of his mixed race, his examples of prayer and penance, charity and humility led to his acceptance as a volunteer and Third Order Dominican. Often when he prayed, Martin was surrounded by a brilliant light and was able to pass through locked doors in order to help the sick or dying. Discover his extraordinary and mystical life in the EWTN original movie, “Saint Martin de Porres.”
