Saints celebrated on the 21st August
SAINT ANASTASIUS, MARTYR OF SALONA
Today, we also commemorate Saint Anastasius. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Salona, Saint Anastasius, a law officer, who was converted to the faith by seeing the fortitude with which blessed Agapitus bore his torments, and being put to death by order of the emperor Aurelian, for confessing the name of Christ, went to Our Lord."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saint Anastasius 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.
