St. Peter Yu Tae Chol, a Korean martyr, was 13 years old when he was martyred for his faith during a time of severe persecution for Korean Catholics. This youth’s radical faith is an example of pure, selfless love of God. We’re bringing our last but definitely not least guest podcaster of season 2 to you today. After Asian Hate crimes rose 76% in 2020 (according to the FBI), we felt called to feature at least 1 Asian saint by an Asian guest podcaster this season. You can imagine how thrilled we were when we got two! Today is the second of two religious sisters of Korean decent. Sr. Clara Choi is a Korean-American sister. After graduating from college, she joined the Sisters of the Blessed Korean Martyrs (SBKM) in 2010, receiving her formation in Mexico. In 2020, she made her perpetual vows in Korea, and is part of the Quasi-Province of Americas that serves in Mexico, Peru, and USA. **Read more about today's featured podcaster and saint here: https://www.littlewithgreatlove.com/st-peter-yu-tae-cho/ Please support our sponsor, Pio Prints.

St. Andrew Kim was born in Korea, and left for seminary training before later returning to Korea to serve as a missionary, where he served generously and ultimately gave his life for the faith. Today’s special guest podcaster checks off two firsts for our podcast – our first nun and Korean immigrant! Born in Seoul, Korea, Sister Juana Teresa was baptized as Helen Chung. Even as a little child she knew that God had a unique and special plan for her life. Helen’s family immigrated to Paraguay, where she learned to speak Spanish, and later to Canada. After she received the sacrament of Confirmation and had a deep, personal encounter with God through the baptism in the Holy Spirit, Helen desired to respond to God’s great love discerning that she was called to be a religious Sister. In October of 1992, she joined the Disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ and received the name Sr. Juana Teresa. Becoming a Sister was a response of love, one that the Lord called her to, to learn to love. She is still learning that each day by following in the footsteps of Jesus amongst her community in Texas. Read more about Sr. Juana, with a link to her community, on our blog! **Read more about today's featured podcaster and saint here: https://www.littlewithgreatlove.com/st-andrew-kim-dae-gun/ Red Bird Ministries is a non-profit, pro-life, and pro-family, Catholic grief support ministry serving individuals and couples who have experienced the loss of a child from pregnancy through adulthood.
