PRISIONEROS DE DACHAU SE ACERCAN A SAN JOSÉ
0:00
En la primavera de 1945, prisioneros del Campo de Concentración de Dachau sintieron que la victoria aliada en la Segunda Guerra Mundial era inminente, pero también creían que los Nazis no los dejarían salir vivos del campo. El 14 de abril, comenzaron una novena y le entregaron su seguridad a san José de Kalisz. Sin que lo supieran, el mismo día, Heinrich Himmler firmó una orden para la ejecución de todos los prisioneros de Dachau. Nueve días después, más de 800 prisioneros se consagraron a san José. Dachau fue liberado por tropas aliadas el 29 de abril, solo horas antes de la orden de Himmler. Szyson Czyszek, cuyo abuelo fue uno de esos prisioneros rescatados ese día, reflexiona sobre el poder de san José como intercesor y modelo a seguir.

Our Liberator: St. Joseph and the Priests of Dachau
0:00
In the spring of 1945, the Roman Catholic priest inmates of the Dachau Concentration Camp sensed that the Allied victory in the Second World War was imminent. They also believed, however, that the Nazis would never allow them to leave the camp alive. On April 14, they began a novena entrusting their safety to St. Joseph of Kalisz. Unbeknownst to them, on the same day, Heinrich Himmler signed an order for the execution of all Dachau prisoners. Miraculously, Dachau was liberated by Allied troops on April 29, only hours before Himmler’s order was to be carried out. Our Liberator: St. Joseph and the Priests of Dachau tells this remarkable true story, and gives a powerful witness to the power of intercessory prayer.
