ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN AUGUST
Saints celebrated on the 18th of August
SAINTS JOHN AND CRISPUS, PRIESTS
Today, we also commemorate Saints John and Crispus. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Rome, during the persecution of Diocletian, the blessed John and Crispus, priests, who charitably buried the bodies of many saints, and afterwards becoming partakers of their merits, they deserved the joys of eternal life."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saints John and Crispus 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.
