ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST
Saints celebrated on the 26th of August
SAINT ALEXANDER, MARTYR
Today, we also commemorate Saint Alexander. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Bergamo, in Lombardy, Saint Alexander, martyr, who was one of the same legion, and endured martyrdom by being beheaded for the constant confession of the name of our Lord Jesus Christ."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saint Alexander 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.
