Feast Days Of Two Early Martyrs




Padre Mickey has two wonderful posts on early martyrs of the church, St. Clement of Rome and St. Cecilia. He's posted a lovely icon for each saint.

The paintings here are Saint Cecilia by Guido Reni, 1606[1] and Saint Clement by Tiepolo.

  1. This is lovely, thank you.

    I have not been to this blog all week, just thinking that makes my heart hurt.

    But being here makes my heart better.

    Thank you Grandmere!!

  2. Fran, if it's a comfort to you, I have not been getting around as much as I normally do.

  3. Jan, it's hard for me to resist an excuse for putting up a beautiful painting, but Padre Mickey's posts on the early saints are well worth reading.
