Saints celebrated on the 14th of June

SAINT MARCIAN, BISHOP AND MARTYR

Today, we also commemorate Saint Marcian. The Roman Martyrology states: 

"At Syracuse, Saint Marcian, bishop, who was made bishop by blessed Peter, and killed by the Jews after he had preached the Gospel."

PRAYER:

Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saint Marcian 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.
