Saints celebrated on the 9th of April
VIRGIN MARTYRS OF SIRMIUM
Today, we also commemorate the Virgin Martyrs of Sirmium. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Sirmium, seven holy virgins and martyrs, who purchased eternal life together, at the price of their own blood."
PRAYER:
Grant to your Church, we beseech you, O Lord, through the intercession of your holy martyrs of Sirmium, not to think high-mindedly, but to grow in humility pleasing to you; that, despising what is base, she may with unbounded love diligently do whatever is right. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
