Saints celebrated on the 10th of May
THE INVENTION OF SAINTS NAZARIUS AND CELSUS, MARTYRS
Today, we also commemorate The Invention of Saints Nazarius and Celsus, Martyrs. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Milan, the finding of the bodies of the holy martyrs Nazarius and Celsus. The blessed bishop Ambrose found the body of St. Nazarius covered with blood still fresh, which he translated to the basilica of the Apostles, together with the body of the blessed boy Celsus, whom Nazarius had brought up, and whom Anolinus, in the persecution of Nero, had ordered to be struck with the sword on the 28th of July, the day when their martyrdom is commemorated."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of The Invention of Saints Nazarius and Celsus, Martyrs, may increase our devotion and promote our salvation. 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.
