ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN SEPTEMBER
Saints celebrated on the 16th of September
SAINTS LUCIA AND GEMINIANUS, MARTYRS
Today, we also commemorate Saints Lucia and Geminianus. The Roman Martyrology states:
"At Rome, the holy martyrs Lucia, noble matron, and Geminianus, who were subjected to most grievous afflictions and a long time tortured, by the command of the emperor Diocletian. Finally, being put to the sword, they obtained the glorious victory of martyrdom."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of Saints Lucia and Geminianus 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.
