ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN SEPTEMBER
Saints celebrated on the 22nd of September
SAINT MAURICE AND COMPANIONS, MARTYRS
Today, we also commemorate Saint Maurice and Companions. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Saint Maurice, near Sion, in Switzerland, the birthday of the holy Theban martyrs Maurice, Exuperius, Candidus, Victor, Innocent, and Vitalis, with their companions of the same legion, whose martyrdom for the faith, in the time of Maximian, filled the world with the glory of their sufferings."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saints Maurice, Exuperius, Candidus, Victor, Innocent, and Vitalis 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.
