Today the Church honors St. Genevieve of Paris, a woman whose faith and prayer protected an entire city during one of the most unstable periods in European history. Living during the collapse of the Roman Empire, St. Genevieve became a spiritual anchor for Paris through courage, fasting, charity, and unwavering trust in God.

In this episode of Saints in a Year, Saul shares 7 in-depth reflections on the life of St. Genevieve. You will learn how she consecrated her life to God at a young age, endured ridicule for her devotion, guided Paris through fear and invasion through prayer, and became known as the spiritual protector and patroness of the city.

St. Genevieve reminds us that prayer is not passive. In times of fear and uncertainty, faith steadies hearts, strengthens communities, and invites God’s protection.

📖 Bible Verse

“Do not be afraid. Stand firm, and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today.”

Exodus 14:13
