November 13: ST. FRANCES XAVIER CABRINI: The Woman Who Would Not Go Home

Meet St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, the first U.S. citizen to be canonized and the patron saint of immigrants.

She was barely five feet tall and often sick, and an archbishop told her to go back to Italy. Instead, Mother Cabrini found a building, scrubbed the floors herself, and started caring for orphans. This episode shows children what trust in God's providence looks like, and how one tiny woman served thousands of immigrant families across the United States and beyond.

The Pope's words that changed her life: "Not to the East, but to the West."
