4 Things You Should Know about Cabrini

4 Things You Should Know about <em>Cabrini</em>

Mother Cabrini is a young Italian woman with a heart for the world's poor and a bold plan to meet their needs.

Her plan: launch a ministry in Asia, where -- she says -- poverty is ripping through the continent rapidly and the poor are in desperate need of food, housing, and medicine. She wants to launch a series of orphanages. First, though, she needs the approval of the Vatican, which she has written a dozen times. Finally, she gets a much-desired meeting with the Pope.

"For one little woman, you make a lot of noise," he says.

He approves her mission with one caveat: It must begin in the United States, where more than 1 million Italians have immigrated and are in need of assistance. They're battling not only poverty but racism, too. She agrees to go.

"From now on, my sisters, we speak English," she tells her fellow nuns.

The film Cabrini (PG-13) follows the story of Mother Cabrini, who enters the U.S. through Ellis Island -- sailing by the Statue of Liberty -- and sets out to change the world. Angel Studios (Sound of Freedom) is distributing it.

Here are four things you should know about the film:

11 New Christian Movies You'll Want to Watch in 2024

The phrase "Christian movie" is becoming increasingly difficult to define.

Does it only reference a movie with a strong gospel message, like Billy Graham movies from long ago? Or can it also include movies that don't quote Scripture but have biblical themes -- like forgiveness and redemption? And what about all those movies made by Christian filmmakers -- and even backed by faith-based studios -- that are void of sermons, though inspiring?

For this list, we're including all of the above.

The new year promises to be a solid year for Christian movies. It could be the best year ever. Angel Studios has an impressive slate. So does Kingdom Story Company. And the makers of War Room have a new movie, too. From what I've seen, 2024 raises the bar for excellence in the Christian film genre.

Here are 11 new Christian movies we're excited about for 2024:
