Heart of a Servant: The Father Flanagan Story

Let me start this out with the truth - I had no knowledge of Father Flanagan before watching "Heart of A Servant." I watched the film once. I watched it a second time. And a third. And fourth! I was blown away by 1) his heart. He came from chronic illness and less than ideal life circumstances. Yet he served Christ in others; most notably others whom society rejected, snubbed, and disregarded. 2) his passion. Here is a man who wouldn't take defeat for an answer. You've gotta watch this film to get what I mean. 3) his legacy. I'm a woman of faith and one who is striving to work and serve and love so that those who come after me in my true beauty enterprise will savor the first fruits of my legacy. Father Flanagan's story and his legacy far outlived his existence. THIS, dear brethren, is what we need in the world today. Positive role models who will point us Godward. Point us in the relentless pursuit of good. Point us to true sanctity. Point us to the Sacred Heart of God. Watch "Heart of A Servant: The Father Flanagan Story" and share it with everyone you know. Viva Padre Flanagan!!!
