How The "Butcher of Auschwitz" Became Catholic

from Fr. Brian Soliven Sermons · host brian

"Bless me father for I have sinned... I killed 3 million people." I imagine that's how the confession would have began when Rudolf Höss asked for a priest. Höss is the infamous Auschwitz commandant of the Nazi's largest and most brutal concentration camp. Under his cold, calculating leadership, he oversaw the wholesale death of millions with the efficiency of an automobile assembly line. If anyone is deserving of eternal damnation, it would be him. Yet amazingly, in the final days before his death by hanging, God's Divine Mercy broke through.  --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian’s homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.
