ST CATHERINE OF ALEXANDRIA - 25 NOVEMBER

ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN NOVEMBER Saints celebrated on the 25th of November WELCOME! ST CATHERINE OF ALEXANDRIA, VIRGIN AND MARTYR Saint Catherine of Alexandria, a noble virgin of Alexandria, joined an ardent faith to her studies of the liberal arts. When she saw many Christians seized for punishment by order of Maximin, she approached Maximin himself and boldly declared that faith in Christ is necessary for salvation.

Then he summoned learned men from everywhere to try to persuade her and to convert her to the worship of idols. But the opposite effect happened. THE OPPOSITE EFFECT HAPPENED For many of these men were convinced by the most wise arguments of Catherine, embraced the faith in Christ, and would not have hesitated to die for it. Wherefore Maximin tried, first by flattery, then by torments, to turn her away from her belief; but when he saw that these had no effect, he ...
