May is a month dedicated to the Virgin Mary, and few saints embodied devotion to her quite like St. Pope Pius V. From enforcing the Council of Trent’s reforms to leading the Holy League in the Battle of Lepanto, his legacy shaped Catholic tradition in ways that still echo today. But his papacy wasn’t without controversy—his bold decisions, including the excommunication of Elizabeth I, left a lasting impact on Europe. Join me as we explore the life of this steadfast pope, his unwavering faith, and the sacrifices that made him a saint.
