ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN SEPTEMBER
Saints celebrated on the 3rd of September
SAINT EUPHEMIA AND COMPANIONS, VIRGINS AND MARTYRS
Today, we also commemorate Saint Euphemia and Companions. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Aquileia, the holy virgins and martyrs Euphemia, Dorothea, Thecla, and Erasma. Under Nero, after enduring many torments, they were slain with the sword, and buried by Saint Hermagoras."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saints Euphemia, Dorothea, Thecla, and Erasma 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.
