About this Event
***This event directly follows the 7:00 PM Missa Cantata for the feast of Blessed Maria Cristina of Savoy at Saint Rocco's at approximately 8:30 PM ***
Join us for an inspiring lecture over dinner and drink from Brendan Young, Knight of Merit and Executive Director of the Sacred Military Constantinian Order of Saint George American Delegation, exploring the remarkable life of Servant of God Francis II, the last King of the Two Sicilies. This event delves into the faith and difficulties faced by him as his kingdom fell and his life thereafter. Described as "more seminarian than a soldier," he adopted Our Lady as his mother, having never known his own, as she had died shortly after his birth. Francis II showed great mercy in all facets of his life, even to the Piedmontese forces he faced at Gaeta where he made his last stand.
