Saint of the Day

Bl. Crispin of Viterbo (1668-1750)
Crispin was a Franciscan brother. A miracle worker who was known for his charitable care of the poor and sick, he was visited by priests, bishops, and even a pope. He called himself the ass (the beast of burden) of the Capuchins.

Reflections from the Saints

Let us love God who deserves it!

Life in Christ: Catechism #2261

Scripture specifies the prohibition contained in the fifth commandment: "Do not slay the innocent and the righteous." The deliberate murder of an innocent person is gravely contrary to the dignity of the human being, to the golden rule, and to the holiness of the Creator. The law forbidding it is universally valid: it obliges each and everyone, always and everywhere.
