St Maximilian Kolbe

He made a shelter for refugees in the World War 2
In 1941 he was arrested by the Germans as prisoner 16670 Maximilian stood up and said take me in his place because I won't be missed like this man

He taught the men in prison how to pray and sing songs to god.

The man whose place he took survived the war and returned home to his family. 

There is no love then a man who would lay down his life for a friend.
He was announced a priest in 1982, 10 October
