In this episode, we hear about the 40-day retreat that led Fr. Michael Shields to a life of service in Russia, despite his own personal resistance to going. God's call to "go to the camps" ultimately takes him to the wreckage of the Gulag death camps in Magadan. He shares about his experience of encountering the Russian people as a stigmatized Catholic priest, along with miracle stories from Magadan and beyond.
