    • I am not sure exactly what the official name for these is, but I heard the term "home altar" on another  forum. :)

    These are some pictures of my room.

    • Vladimir,

    Is that a statue of St. Martin de Porres in the back, behind the picture of Our Lady of Fatima?

    St. Jude, who, disregarding the threats of the impious, courageously preached the doctrine of Christ,
    pray for us.

    • Spanish-language network Univision made an excellent film about St. Martin a few years ago. I found a copy in the Spanish section at WalMart. It has subtitles in English.

    This is a great study in real humility. I would love to have known St. Martin in life.

    Yes, he seemed like a very holy person. I will try to obtain that movie.

    I do not know why but for some reason, a lot of Vietnamese Catholics have a devotion to him.
