WELCOME!

MUNDERIC, BISHOP OF ARISITUM


Munderic (Mundericus) (Munderich) of Langres (French Mondry, Modericus, Mondericus, Mundéric) (born c. 540; died c. 580) was a Frankish bishop and Christian saint. His feast day is March 18. Since some sources reckon him to be the same person as Mondry of Cellettes, May 10 and 12 are also considered memorial days.

Munderic of Langres was the son of Ferreole of Rodez and Saint Deuteria, abbess of Saint-Pierre in Reims. His siblings were Ferreole of Narbonne, Lucilla Ferreola, Agilulf, Deotarius, Babon, Ragenfred and Ausbert.

Munderic was coadjutor of the ill Bischop Tetricus of Langres, who died in 572/73. He was then consecrated Bishop of Tonnerre. However, he fell out of favour with the Frankish King Guntram I and was imprisoned. After his release, he went to Austrasia under the protection of King Sigibert I. The latter appointed Munderic as bishop of the newly founded diocese of Arisitum. A short time later Munderic died.

FATIMA APPARITION - AUGUST 13 The Fatima Children “BUT IN THE END MY IMMACULATE HEART WILL TRIUMPH.” But in the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me; it will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world. THE AUGUST 13 EVENTS On August 13, the children were in jail at Ourem. The civil administrator threatened to boil them in oil if they did not tell the Lady’s secret. Though badly frightened, they could not think of disobeying our Lady.

At noon, there was a loud clap of thunder. Then, according to an eyewitness: “Right after the thunder came a flash, and immediately we all noticed a little cloud, very white, beautiful and bright,...

  ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN JANUARY Saints celebrated on the 7th of January WELCOME! SAINT VALENTINE, BISHOP OF RHAETIA Saint Valentine (Valentinus) is the patron saint of the diocese of Passau. The Proprium of Passau relates his life story as follows: Saint Valentine came from the seashore and arrived at Batava, today's Passau. Here he wanted to proclaim the gospel to the inhabitants, who were ignorant of the true worship of God, and therefore went to Rome to obtain the necessary authority from the Pope for this undertaking. Upon his return, he invested much time and effort to gain those lost souls for Christ, as the Pope expected him to. Valentine himself thirsted for their salvation, incessantly preaching the Divine word to them. After some considerable time, however, Valentine realised that all the seed he had sown fell on rocky ground. Thus he travelled again to Rome with the request to be sent to another place that had fertile soil. The Pope received him graciously, consecra...
