ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST
Saints celebrated on the 14th of August
SAINT MARCELLUS, BISHOP AND MARTYR
Today, we also commemorate Saint Marcellus. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Apamea, in Syria, Saint Marcellus, bishop and martyr, who was killed by the exasperated Gentiles, for having pulled down a temple of Jupiter."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saint Marcellus 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.
