Come spend time with Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament! This Friday is the First Friday for February (say that 10 times fast), so nocturnal adoration will begin at 7:30 p.m. Friday with worship through the night, concluding at 7 a.m. Saturday. All are welcome to come and pray with Jesus at any hour.
Today we celebrate the feast day of St. Blaise, bishop and martyr. Legend has it that Blaise was a physician in his hometown of Sebaste, Armenia, before becoming bishop. In 316, the governor of Cappadocia arrested Christians for their faith and sent them to jail. On his way to be imprisoned, Blaise was asked to perform multiple miracles of healing, including one for a boy with a fishbone stuck in his throat. As a gift of thanks, Blaise was given two wax candles to provide him light in his cell. When he would not renounce his faith, Blaise was ordered to be torn apart by metal combs that were used to comb wool. After, he was beheaded. Many people attribute miracles of healing to St. Blaise’s intercession. Catholic tradition celebrates his feast day with the blessing of throats with two wax candles, a blessing that Father John and Deacon Scott offered to those at Mass this morning.
