Treasure Island, Kidnapped, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and his wonderful short stories like Markheim, The Body Snatcher, and The Bottle Imp to name a few.  Today we begin an episodic journey through the novel Catriona, published as David Balfour in the US. Though the name looks to be spelled Catriona, apparently it's correctly pronounced as Katrina. So that's what we'll do.   This second volume of David Balfour's story is less a straightforward adventure story, and is more of a novel of manners with some adventure sprinkled in. To me it feels like a natural progression as the youth gets older, has more responsibility, and learns to make his way in the wider world of Scottish traditions.     And now, David Balfour, Part 1 of 9, by Robert Louis Stevenson   Follow this link to get The Audiobook Library Card for a special price of $9.99/month   Follow this link and get Multiple Licenses for The Audiobook Library Card   Follow this link and watch the new video walkthrough using PocketBook.       Follow this link to subscribe to our YouTube Channel:       Follow this link to subscribe to the Arsène Lupin Podcast:     Follow this link to follow us on Instagram:     Follow this link to follow us on Facebook:

Murder? Kidnapping? How low will the miserly Ebenezer Balfour stoop to keep his nephew David from his rightful inheritance? Robert Louis Stevenson, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.   Welcome to this VINTAGE episode of The Classic Tales Podcast, where an audiobook approach delivers an immersive experience in both familiar and new-to-you classic literature.

This summer, I thought of something a little different. Robert Louis Stevenson, my gateway drug to the classics, wrote a sequel to Kidnapped that is quite good, but not as well known. I've been wanting to do it for some time, but the time didn't seem right. This summer I think we'll give it a go.   So that you all can refresh yourselves on David Balfour's story, I'm planning a few more robust vintage episodes during the next few weeks, where we'll hear the entire novel of Kidnapped in three episodes.   Now, here's the thing – this is like, one of the first audiobooks I've ever recorded. So while it still gets a fair rating on Audible, you'll hear that I'm still getting my sea legs. Kidnapped has never appeared on The Classic Tales Podcast and has only been available in our retail outlets.   And if you've never heard it before, you're in for a real treat.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION “One's own self is well hidden from one's own self.”~Friedrich Nietzsche  “Man is not truly one, but truly two.” “I knew myself, at the first breath of this new life, to be more wicked, tenfold more wicked, sold a space to my original evil; and the thought in that moment, braced and delighted me like wine.”~Robert Louis Stevenson, The Strange Case of Dr. Kekyl and Mr. Hyde “All of life is a battle between two selves. But there is a different war before you become a Christian and from the war that happens after you become a Christian. There's a war between the selves before you meet Christ and there's a different war between the selves after you meet Christ. The war before is without hope, but the war after, you cannot lose!” ~Tim Keller  “One must be joined to Christ for salvation, not simply follow the law. The law shows how sinful people are, but only Christ can save by His perfect life and His perfect righteousness.” ~Martin Lloyd-Jones “It is when I turn to Christ, when I give myself up to His Personality, that I first begin to have a real personality of my own.”~C.S. LewisSERMON PASSAGERomans 7:1-13 (ESV) 1 Since I am speaking to those who know the law, brothers and sisters, don't you know that the law rules over someone as long as he lives? 2 For example, a married woman is legally bound to her husband while he lives. But if her husband dies, she is released from the law regarding the husband. 3 So then, if she is married to another man while her husband is living, she will be called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law. Then, if she is married to another man, she is not an adulteress. 4 Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you also were put to death in relation to the law through the body of Christ so that you may belong to another. You belong to him who was raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God. 5 For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions aroused through the law were working in us to bear fruit for death. 6 But now we have been released from the law, since we have died to what held us, so that we may serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the old letter of the law. 7 What should we say then? Is the law sin? Absolutely not! But I would not have known sin if it were not for the law. For example, I would not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, “Do not covet.” 8 And sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every kind. For apart from the law sin is dead. 9 Once I was alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin sprang to life again 10 and I died. The commandment that was meant for life resulted in death for me. 11 For sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me. 12 So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and just and good. 13 Therefore, did what is good become death to me? Absolutely not! But sin, in order to be recognized as sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that through the commandment, sin might become sinful beyond measure.

SF Kritik: "Luna inconita" von Axel Kruse - besprochen von Udo Klotz(Hördauer 05 Min.)Die Schatzinsel von Robert Louis Stevenson, wer kennt sie nicht? Hier kommt sie in neuem Gewand. Die faschistische Erdregierung wurde von den Aliens in die Knie gezwungen. In der Ideologie der Verlierer fühlt sich Jim Hawkins sichtlich wohl. Für ihn sind die Aliens an allem schuld: Am verlorenen Krieg sowieso, an der Arbeitslosigkeit, der wirtschaftlichen Misere und überhaupt … Er ist zwar noch nie einem Alien persönlich begegnet, aber seine Meinung steht unverrückbar – oder doch nicht? Denn dann erlebt er ein Abenteuer, das seine Einstellung hart auf die Probe stellt, und nach und nach kommen die Selbstzweifel, die sein Weltbild infrage stellen.Udo Klotz organisiert seit rund dreißig Jahren die Wahl und die Verleihung des Kurd Laßwitz Preises, kurz KLP genannt, einem der wichtigsten Literaturpreise auf dem Gebiet der phantastischen Literatur in Deutschland. Im Gespräch erzählt er, wie die Nominierungen zustande kommen, wer zur Wahl berechtigt ist und wie und wo die Verleihungen stattfinden.Außerdem ist Udo Klotz gemeinsam mit Christian Hoffmann Herausgeber des Magazins !TIME MACHINE, das mit bisher sechs Ausgaben beim Wurdack Verlag erscheint und sich vor allem an SF-Fans wendet, die sich nicht nur für Neuerscheinungen interessieren, sondern auch für die Geschichte des Genres. Münchner PhantastenWenn dich diese Sendung interessiert hat, dann schau doch auch mal hierhttps://literaturradiohoerbahn.com/kalt-wie-die-luft-von-orjan-n-karlsson-rezension-von-constanze-matthes/ Tontechnik und Realisation: Uwe Kullnick

Mitten im Pazifik, rund 550 Kilometer vor der Küste Costa Ricas, liegt eine Insel, die kaum jemand je betreten hat – und die dennoch die Phantasie von Menschen auf der ganzen Welt beflügelt. Cocos Island: dicht bewaldet, von Wasserfällen durchzogen, von tosender Brandung umgeben. Und angeblich voller Schätze. War es diese Insel, die Robert Louis Stevenson als Vorlage für seine „Schatzinsel“ diente? Was steckt hinter den Legenden von vergrabenem Piratensilber? Und was trieb den deutschen Abenteurer August Gissler Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts dazu, ausgerechnet hier eine Kolonie zu gründen? Wir haben uns die Geschichte von Cocos Island genauer angesehen – von Piratenmythen und Stevenson über Gisslers gescheitertes Kolonieexperiment bis hin zu einem der bestgeschützten Meeresschutzgebiete der Welt. 24.06.2026 Online-Vortrag bei der VHS Hannover „Scrollen, Swipen, Sorgen: Soll der Staat Kinder vor Social Media schützen?“ zur kostenfreien Anmeldung Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

Full Text of Readings Sixth Sunday of Easter Lectionary: 55 The Saint of the day is Saint Damien de Veuster of Moloka'i Saint Damien de Veuster of Moloka'i's Story When Joseph de Veuster was born in Tremelo, Belgium, in 1840, few people in Europe had any firsthand knowledge of leprosy, Hansen's disease. By the time he died at the age of 49, people all over the world knew about this disease because of him. They knew that human compassion could soften the ravages of this disease. Forced to quit school at age 13 to work on the family farm, Joseph entered the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary six years later, taking the name of a fourth-century physician and martyr. When his brother Pamphile, a priest in the same congregation, fell ill and was unable to go to the Hawaiian Islands as assigned, Damien quickly volunteered in his place. In May 1864, two months after arriving in his new mission, Damien was ordained a priest in Honolulu and assigned to the island of Hawaii. In 1873, he went to the Hawaiian government's leper colony on the island of Moloka'i, set up seven years earlier. Part of a team of four chaplains taking that assignment for three months each year, Damien soon volunteered to remain permanently, caring for the people's physical, medical, and spiritual needs. In time, he became their most effective advocate to obtain promised government support. Soon the settlement had new houses and a new church, school and orphanage. Morale improved considerably. A few years later, he succeeded in getting the Franciscan Sisters of Syracuse, led by Mother Marianne Cope, to help staff this colony in Kalaupapa. Saint Damien contracted Hansen's disease and died of its complications. As requested, he was buried in Kalaupapa, but in 1936 the Belgian government succeeded in having his body moved to Belgium. Part of Damien's body was returned to his beloved Hawaiian brothers and sisters after his beatification in 1995. When Hawaii became a state in 1959, it selected Damien of Moloka'i as one of its two representatives in the Statuary Hall at the US Capitol. Damien was canonized by Pope Benedict XVI on October 11, 2009. Reflection Some people thought Saint Damien was a hero for going to Moloka'i and others thought he was crazy. When a Protestant clergyman wrote that Damien was guilty of immoral behavior, Robert Louis Stevenson vigorously defended him in an “Open Letter to Dr. Hyde.”Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Hoi Mitenand!Willkommen zu einer neuen Folge des Schweizerdeutsch Hörbuchs!

IX En este episodio de LLDLL, nos adentramos en uno de los territorios más inquietantes y desconocidos de la mente humana: los sueños. La Frontera con lo Imposible. Este programa reúne experiencias reales que desafían la lógica, relatos que se mueven entre la psicología, el misterio y lo paranormal, y una pregunta constante que nos acompaña durante todo el viaje: ¿son los sueños simples construcciones del cerebro o pueden ser una puerta hacia algo más? A lo largo del episodio, escuchamos testimonios impactantes enviados por oyentes que han vivido experiencias oníricas difíciles de explicar. Historias como la de Beltrán, quien desde niño sufrió pesadillas recurrentes hasta que un día decidió enfrentarse a ellas dentro del propio sueño, descubriendo así el fenómeno del sueño lúcido y el control consciente del mundo onírico. O el caso de Antonio, que vuelve a compartir una vivencia profundamente personal donde el sueño se convierte en un espacio de conexión con lo inexplicable. También conocemos el relato de María, quien asegura haber recibido visitas de familiares fallecidos en sueños, aportando datos concretos, mensajes y detalles imposibles de atribuir al azar. El programa se enriquece además con colaboraciones y referencias dentro del mundo del misterio, como el podcast La Gata Cristy de Lola Velasco. Pero este viaje no se limita a experiencias personales. También exploramos algunos de los sueños más influyentes de la historia, aquellos que cambiaron la ciencia, la literatura y la música. Desde Dmitri Mendeléyev, quien soñó la estructura de la tabla periódica, hasta Elias Howe, cuya pesadilla le dio la clave para inventar la máquina de coser. Pasamos por James Watson y Francis Crick, vinculados a la visualización de la doble hélice del ADN, y por August Kekulé, quien descubrió la estructura del benceno tras soñar con una serpiente que se mordía la cola. La literatura también nace del mundo onírico con Robert Louis Stevenson, que concibió El extraño caso del doctor Jekyll y Mr Hyde tras una pesadilla, y Mary Shelley, quien imaginó Frankenstein en un sueño que la aterrorizó profundamente. En la música, encontramos el caso de Giuseppe Tartini y su Trino del Diablo, inspirado por un sueño en el que el propio demonio tocaba el violín, y el de Paul McCartney, quien soñó la melodía de Yesterday en 1963 y más tarde la frase que daría origen a Let It Be, vinculada a la aparición de su madre fallecida, Mary. Sin embargo, uno de los bloques más perturbadores del episodio nos traslada a un caso real que dejó desconcertada a la ciencia en los años 80: el fenómeno vivido por la etnia Hmong. Tras huir de Laos durante la Guerra de Vietnam, especialmente tras la retirada de Estados Unidos en 1975, muchos refugiados comenzaron a morir de forma inexplicable mientras dormían en países como Estados Unidos, en lugares como Minnesota, Wisconsin o California. Este fenómeno, conocido médicamente como SUNDS (Síndrome de Muerte Súbita Nocturna Inexplicable), fue interpretado por los Hmong como el ataque de una entidad llamada Dab Tsog, un espíritu que se posa sobre el pecho durante el sueño, provocando parálisis, terror extremo y, en algunos casos, la muerte. Estos sucesos no solo marcaron a la comunidad, sino que también inspiraron a Wes Craven tras leer casos reales en el Los Angeles Times, dando origen a uno de los iconos del terror moderno: Freddy Krueger y la saga Pesadilla en Elm Street. Un ejemplo más de cómo el miedo que habita en los sueños puede trascender hasta la cultura popular. A lo largo de este episodio, se plantea un equilibrio constante entre la explicación científica, que interpreta los sueños como procesos neurológicos relacionados con la memoria, el trauma o el deseo y la experiencia subjetiva de quienes aseguran haber vivido algo mucho más profundo. ¿Puede una creencia provocar una reacción física capaz de detener el corazón? ¿Son los sueños una vía de comunicación con lo que ya no está? ¿O simplemente una forma en la que el cerebro procesa la realidad? Sueños de los Oyentes es un programa sobre sueños lúcidos, sueños premonitorios, parálisis del sueño, experiencias paranormales, mensajes del más allá y relatos reales que exploran los límites entre la mente y lo desconocido. Un episodio pensado para quienes buscan historias de misterio, casos reales, fenómenos inexplicables y ese punto en el que la ciencia ya no tiene todas las respuestas.

In this episode, “The Invisible Dan” and “Monster Mike” finally dive into their first genuine adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic gothic novella Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and boy, it's a doozy! Join them as they discuss Paul Massie's unique dual role as the homely Dr. Jekyll and the handsome Mr. Hyde, the return of horror icon Christopher Lee in a non-monster role, plus another big screen icon making his first Hammer appearance, Hammer's trademark use of bold colors, what constitutes a monster movie, and why The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll is far and away the most salacious film they've discussed so far!

It's Hammer Time once again on WTH, and it's the turn of 1971's “Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde”. A film in which we learn that two's company, three's a positive deviation; that Burke and Hare were time travellers; and that an alias inspired by a newspaper headline isn't always the best idea (just ask Mrs Freddie Starr Ate My Hamster). A title that began as a joke has probably not helped the reputation of this late period Hammer movie, with many dismissing it as an unnecessary watch from a studio long past its prime. But this is a mistake, from the combo of stalwart director Roy Ward Baker and Avengers writer Brian Clemens comes an interesting and vibrant film, that feels more modern than a lot of its stablemates, with bags of atmosphere, a line of still effective gore, some lovely directorial flourishes, and a blackly comic streak in both its characters and dialogue. Ralph Bates and Martine Beswick are a brilliant paring as the two aspects of our protagonist, ably supported by a strong cast, notably Gerald Simm's disreputable Professor and Philip Madoc's lugubrious mortuary attendant. Whilst “Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde” ultimately fails to adequately explore the concept at its heart, it is certainly the most entertaining of the studio's few attempts to adapt Robert Louis Stevenson's classic, and another example of the less well-known Hammer Films being surprising gems that deserve a much greater appreciation. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers and join us.

This week on the Scary Spirits Podcast, we draw back the velvet curtain to commemorate the U.S. release anniversary of Hammer Horror's 1971 classic, Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde, released on April 15th. With scholarly precision and a suitably macabre twinkle, hosts Karen and Greg examine the film's daring reimagining of Robert Louis Stevenson's tale—where science, repression, and identity intertwine in true Hammer fashion. Expect thoughtful discussion of the film's performances, atmosphere, gender-bending shock, and its enduring place in the golden age of British horror cinema. Naturally, such an elegant descent into madness demands refreshment. As the clock strikes midnight, our hosts raise a glass to the good doctor with a themed Brandy Old Fashioned cocktail, rich, refined, and just a touch dangerous—much like the film itself. If you are a devotee of Hammer Horror films, classic 1970s horror cinema, or simply relish intelligent conversation steeped in Gothic charm, then join us… because some experiments are far too fascinating to resist. Listen now to Scary Spirits Podcast — where classic horror meets wickedly good spirits. Brandy Old Fashioned • 2 oz brandy• 1/2 oz simple syrup• 3 dashes aromatic bitters• 2 dashes orange bitters• Garnish: orange peel and brandied cherry Instructions: Add brandy, simple syrup, aromatic bitters, and orange bitters to a glass with ice and stir until well chilled. Squeeze the orange peel over the glass and drop it in. Garnish with a brandied cherry. Source: ohlq.com A Brief Synopsis: Blackly comic variation on the classic tale, in which the good doctor, experimenting with ways to prolong life, tests the formula on himself and metamorphoses into a beautiful woman. His alter ego turns out to have a very nasty streak, killing prostitutes who, terrified of Jack the Ripper, believe they have nothing to fear from a woman. Some of the topics discussed and highlights of this episode include: We learn about the original novella by Robert Louis Stevenson that inspired the film.

Robert Louis Stevenson was a Scottish writer famous for adventure stories like Treasure Island and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. As a child, he loved imagination and storytelling, which later shaped his writing career. Stevenson traveled widely and used his experiences to create exciting tales of pirates, mystery, and exploration. His stories remain popular today and helped shape modern adventure fiction.

On the morning of November 7, 1878, it was discovered that the tomb of wealthy Gilded Age merchant A. T. Stewart had been opened and his body taken.    Although this was shocking, the idea of graves being opened and bodies stolen was not new, and in fact, it became a fairly common occurrence during the 19th century and before. Bodies were snatched for a variety of reasons, including ransom, but more often to serve as specimens for the expanding medical profession to use in research and training.   In this episode, cemetery historian and tour guide James Henry takes us on a journey through the 19th century, sharing tales of the most infamous bodysnatchers, Burke and Hare in 1820s Scotland, the attempted body snatching of President Abraham Lincoln, and the lengths 19th-century folk went to to ensure their loved ones' graves were safe from criminals.   Additionally, we'll examine how the practice of body snatching influenced writers such as Mark Twain, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Charles Dickens.    And James shares the mysterious ending of the curious tale of just what happened to the body of A.T. Stewart.  This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Partie à 25 ans pour la Polynésie française, pour voyager ensuite d'îles en îles à travers le monde, l'écrivaine Rose Aries a trouvé dans les espaces insulaires une certaine guérison à ses traumas d'enfance et un refuge pour ses rêves. Dans l'imaginaire des hommes et des femmes, depuis la nuit des temps, il existerait sur notre terre, des lieux clos et parfaits, fragments de terre cernés d'eau, bercés de mystères et de promesses : les îles. De l'autre côté du monde et de soi, ces objets géographiques et symboliques signent une rupture avec le temps et l'espace et incarnent le voyage absolu, total, celui qui transforme et bouleverse face à l'immensité océane. « Ce que les îles font de nous », c'est le titre prometteur de l'essai que signe l'autrice et journaliste française Rose Aries pour la toute nouvelle maison d'édition « Les corps conducteurs » et autour duquel on se retrouve aujourd'hui avec Rose. Debout sur une île : la sienne, intérieure et multiple. Reflet de son histoire intime après une enfance meurtrie par l'inceste. Reflet aussi de l'histoire des conquêtes coloniales et des désirs souvent masculins projetés sur les îles et celles-ceux qui y vivent, que Rose Aries interpelle dans un livre truffé de références et de réflexions sur le sens de nos quêtes d'insularité et de liberté. Paradisiaque, merveilleuse ou déserte, les îles abritent les désirs d'ailleurs et d'autrement de ceux qui les peuplent mais surtout de ceux qui en rêvent. Île au trésor, île mystérieuse, île aux pirates ou aux épices, les récits d'aventures insulaires de Robert Louis Stevenson ou Jules Verne ont hanté très tôt l'enfance et les lectures de Rose Aries qui y trouvaient un horizon, une évasion possible.  À 25 ans, elle prend l'avion pour la première fois, direction Tahiti, très loin de sa famille qui, comme elle l'écrit, « protège plus ses secrets que ses enfants ». Là-bas, elle va travailler en tant que journaliste et rencontrer des insulaires aux cultures fascinantes, bien conscients des projections occidentales contre lesquelles ils et elles s'insurgent et se tiennent debout. Au fil de son essai, Rose Aries distille pudiquement son histoire personnelle mais elle entend surtout déconstruire les « mythes insulaires », de l'île déserte de Robinson à l'île matricielle ou féminine, de l'île utopique à l'île carte postale, lagon azur et cocotier dans le cadre. Un chemin de vérité qui lui tient à cœur, car lui aussi guérit. À lire :  - «Ce que les îles font de nous», de Rose Aries. 2026.

Readers of the Victorian Era eagerly (or furtively) set scruples aside to read Mary Elizabeth Braddon's 1862 sensation novel Lady Audley's Secret — the title of which was enough to tempt even the most puritanical schoolmarm into sneaking a peak. But it was Braddon's sumptuous prose, eye for drama and sophisticated understanding of social mores which won her the admiration of contemporaries like William Makepiece Thackery, Alfred Lord Tennyson and Robert Louis Stevenson. Booklist reviewer and television writer Kristine Huntley joins us this week to discuss Braddon's remarkable prowess in navigating scandalous secrets … including her own!Mentioned in this episode:2026 Andrew Carnegie Medals for Excellence in Fiction and Nonfiction shortlist and longlistBooklistLady Audley's Secret by Mary Elizabeth Braddon“Abducted by my Teacher” Lifetime movie“Freakish” on Hulu“Mind Games” on ABC“Two Sentence Horror Stories” on the CWThe real case that partially inspired Lady Audley's SecretJohn MaxwellAurora Floyd by Mary Elizabeth BraddonThe Woman in White by Wilkie CollinsThe Doctor's Wife by Mary Elizabeth BraddonThe Trail of the Serpent by Mary Elizabeth BraddonThree Times Dead by Mary Elizabeth BraddonDaniel Deronda by George EliotLost Ladies of Lit Episode No. 268 on Rosalind AsheSupport the showFor episodes and show notes, visit: LostLadiesofLit.comSubscribe to our substack newsletter.

En la apartada parroquia escocesa de Balweary, la llegada de una anciana de oscuro pasado altera el frágil equilibrio entre fe, superstición y miedo. El joven reverendo Soulis, decidido a imponer la razón y la doctrina frente a las habladurías del pueblo, pronto se verá enfrentado a fuerzas que desafían cualquier explicación sencilla. “Janet la Torcida” es uno de los relatos más inquietantes de Robert Louis Stevenson: una historia de atmósfera opresiva, fervor religioso y terror contenido, donde lo sobrenatural se insinúa con una sutileza devastadora. Un clásico del horror gótico que demuestra que, a veces, el verdadero espanto no irrumpe… sino que espera.

Full Text of Readings The Saint of the day is Saint Marianne Cope Saint Marianne Cope's Story Though leprosy scared off most people in 19th-century Hawaii, that disease sparked great generosity in the woman who came to be known as Mother Marianne of Molokai. Her courage helped tremendously to improve the lives of its victims in Hawaii, a territory annexed to the United States during her lifetime (1898). Mother Marianne's generosity and courage were celebrated at her May 14, 2005, beatification in Rome. She was a woman who spoke “the language of truth and love” to the world, said Cardinal José Saraiva Martins, prefect of the Congregation for Saints' Causes. Cardinal Martins, who presided at the beatification Mass in St. Peter's Basilica, called her life “a wonderful work of divine grace.” Speaking of her special love for persons suffering from leprosy, he said, “She saw in them the suffering face of Jesus. Like the Good Samaritan, she became their mother.” On January 23, 1838, a daughter was born to Peter and Barbara Cope of Hessen-Darmstadt, Germany. The girl was named after her mother. Two years later the Cope family emigrated to the United States and settled in Utica, New York. Young Barbara worked in a factory until August 1862, when she went to the Sisters of the Third Order of Saint Francis in Syracuse, New York. After profession in November of the next year, she began teaching at Assumption parish school. Saint Marianne Cope held the post of superior in several places and was twice the novice mistress of her congregation. A natural leader, three different times she was superior of St. Joseph's Hospital in Syracuse, where she learned much that would be useful during her years in Hawaii. Elected provincial in 1877, Saint Marianne Cope was unanimously re-elected in 1881. Two years later the Hawaiian government was searching for someone to run the Kakaako Receiving Station for people suspected of having leprosy. More than 50 religious communities in the United States and Canada were asked. When the request was put to the Syracuse sisters, 35 of them volunteered immediately. On October 22, 1883, Mother Marianne and six other sisters left for Hawaii where they took charge of the Kakaako Receiving Station outside Honolulu; on the island of Maui they also opened a hospital and a school for girls. In 1888, Mother Marianne and two sisters went to Molokai to open a home for “unprotected women and girls” there. The Hawaiian government was quite hesitant to send women for this difficult assignment; they need not have worried about Mother Marianne! On Molokai she took charge of the home that Saint Damien de Veuster had established for men and boys. Mother Marianne changed life on Molokai by introducing cleanliness, pride, and fun to the colony. Bright scarves and pretty dresses for the women were part of her approach. Awarded the Royal Order of Kapiolani by the Hawaiian government and celebrated in a poem by Robert Louis Stevenson, Mother Marianne continued her work faithfully. Her sisters have attracted vocations among the Hawaiian people and still work on Molokai. Saint Marianne Cope died on August 9, 1918, was beatified in 2005, and canonized seven years later. Her life is a model of grace, service, kindness, and love. Saint Marianne Cope: Pray for us! Reflection The government authorities were reluctant to allow Saint Marianne Cope to be a mother on Molokai. Thirty years of dedication proved their fears unfounded. God grants gifts regardless of human shortsightedness and allows those gifts to flower for the sake of the kingdom.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Treasure Island, A Child's Garden of Verses - those are just some of the literary classics written by Robert Louis Stevenson. He must have had a way with words from the time he was a boy. Anne Graham Lotz tells of a night in his boyhood when his nanny just couldn't get him to bed. Young Robert just kept staring out the window, oblivious to her talking to him. Finally, she said, "Robert, what in the world are you looking at out there?" As she pulled back the curtain, she realized he was watching the lamplighter making his way down the street, lighting one street lamp after another. Young Robert Louis Stevenson saw something more. He said, "Look at that man! He's punching holes in the darkness!" I'm Ron Hutchcraft, and I want to have A Word With You today about "You Are the Light of Your World." What an awesome description of the reason God has placed you where you are! You're not there to shake your head and bemoan how dark it is where you work or go to school or whatever your environment. You're there to punch holes in the darkness! So, how are you doing on that so far? Well, let's listen to what Jesus said in Matthew 5:14-16, our word for today from the Word of God. If you belong to Jesus, He's including you in this. "You are the light of the world." Wow! Think of your personal world and people in your world. Jesus says you are their light. He goes on to say, "A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp or put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Look, we live in a pretty dark world, right. But it is not a world without light unless the Christian in a situation fails to punch holes in the darkness by living like Jesus would live there, treating people like Jesus would treat people there, and handling situations and temptations as Jesus would handle them. So many of Jesus' followers don't realize who they are - His personal representative in their personal world. You punch another hole in the darkness every time you show up with joy instead of gloom on your face, with good things to say instead of griping, every time you stop for someone who's struggling, when you consciously put someone else ahead of you, when you insist on taking the high road when it's tempting to cut corners, every time you weep with someone who's weeping, or you rejoice with someone who's rejoicing, and when you reach out to someone who's really been acting pretty unloveable. The lost folks around you probably won't be all that impressed with your don'ts or all the religious meetings you go to. No, they need to see meaningful differences in you because of Christ in you. But it isn't enough that they just see that you're different. They need to know why, or they'll never be able to get out of the darkness themselves. They need Jesus. See, He put you in their life so they could find out what Jesus did for them on the cross; so they could find out from someone who's living proof that Jesus is alive and how they, too, could have a life-changing relationship with Him. Have you told them about your Jesus yet? Humanly speaking, you may very well be their best chance at heaven - or maybe their only chance. They could watch you for the rest of your life and they're never going to say, "You know, Charlie's such a nice guy. I'll bet Jesus died on the cross for my sins." They're not going to figure that out. You have to tell them that. Every morning, before your Lord, tell Him and tell yourself, "I am the light of my world." And go out there, showing a harsh and lonely and self-serving world that there's another way to be. Defy the darkness wherever you go. Punch holes in the darkness with the brilliant light of Jesus Christ that lives in you!
