Saint Cecilia, 3rd Century Roman Martyr, Patron of Musicians

Readings of the day: RB 43:13-19
Mass: 2 Maccabees 7:1, 20-31; Resp. Psalm 17; Luke 19:11-28

Mother with her seven sons
Most admirable and worthy of everlasting remembrance was the mother,
who saw her seven sons perish in a single day,
yet bore it courageously because of her hope in the Lord.


O Lord our God, grant us a noble spirit.
May we be courageous witnesses to the faith and never lose hope in your mercy.

SAINT CECILIA,
PRAY FOR US.
