ST RADBOD, BISHOP OF UTRECHT - 29 NOVEMBER

  ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN NOVEMBER Saints celebrated on the 29th of November WELCOME! SAINT RADBOD, BISHOP OF UTRECHT, CONFESSOR This holy prelate was, by his father, of noble French extraction; and, by his mother, Radbod, the last king or prince of the Frisons was his great grandfather, whose name was given him by his mother.  The first tincture of learning and piety he received under the tuition of Gunther, bishop of Cologne, his uncle by the mother: his education was completed in the courts of the emperors Charles the Bald, and his son Lewis the Stammerer, to which he repaired not to aspire after honours, but to perfect himself in the sciences, which were taught there by the ablest masters.  "I, RADBOD, A SINNER..." The hymns and office of St Martin, an eclogue on St Lebwin, a hymn on St Swidbert, and some other pious poems which are extant, are monuments of his piety and application to polite literature, as it was then cultivated: but the sacred duties principally em...

SAINT FEAST DAY 29 NOVEMBER: ST SATURNINUS

ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN NOVEMBER   Saints celebrated on the 29th of November WELCOME! SAINT SATURNINUS, BISHOP AND MARTYR Saint Saturninus (Saint Sernin) was the first bishop of Toulouse, during the consulate of Decius and Gratus (250 A. D.) His preaching made numerous converts. In his Acts, which are mentioned by Saint Gregory, it is described how Saturninus had to pass a Pagan temple to reach his little church. HIS PRESENCE DISPLEASED THE PAGANS The Pagan priests blamed Saint Saturninus’ presence for the continued silence of their oracles. One day they seized him and told him to worship their idols. Upon his refusal, they tied him to the legs of a bull, which dragged him around the town, until the rope snapped. Pious Christian women took his remains and buried them. Eventually they were transferred to Saint Sernin by his successors, Saint Hilary and Saint Exuperius. PRAYER: O God, who give us the joy of celebrating the anniversary of the death of blessed Saturninus, your Martyr,...
