Hawaiian Chicken Kabobs and Year of Faith
This months Year of Faith is listed on the USCCB Saints for the Year of Faith.
The month of May is dedicated to Saint Josef Damien De Veuster.
St Josef Damien De Veuster was born in Belgium on January 3, 1840. He changed his name to Damien in 1859 when he began his initiative with the congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. He prayed every day to be sent on a mission. In 1863 his brother was scheduled to go on a mission to Hawaii, he got sick and couldn’t go. Damien got permission and took his place. He landed in Honolulu on March 19, 1864. Tow days later he was ordained as a priest.
During his mission there was an epidemic of Leprosy. The Hawaiian government thought it was an incurable disease and decided to quarantine anyone infected by deporting them to the neighboring island of Molokai The whole mission was worried about the abandoned lepers. The bishop felt sure that they needed a priest, but didn’t want to send them knowing that it would be a death sentence. So all four brothers volunteered and Damien was the first to go. He left for Kalaupapa on May 10, 1873.
Damien remained on Molokai for 16 years. He died on April 15, 1889. He was 49 years old.
His remains were exhumed in 1936 and sent to a crypt in the Church of the Congregation of the Sacred hearts oat Louvain.
Damien De Veuster was canonized on October 11, 2009.
