ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST
Saints celebrated on the 4th of August
SAINT TERTULLINUS, PRIEST AND MARTYR
Today, we also commemorate Saint Tertullinus. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Rome, on the Latin road, the martyrdom of blessed Tertullinus, priest and martyr, in the time of emperor Valerian. After being cruelly beaten with rods, after having his sides burned, his mouth shattered; after being stretched on the rack and scourged with whips, he completed his martyrdom by being beheaded."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saint Tertullinus 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.
