Saint of the Day

St. Nazarius (1st century)
The son of a pagan Roman army officer, Nazarius was raised a Christian by his mother and taught religion by St. Peter the Apostle. Along with his friend St. Celsus, he evangelized in Milan. He was beheaded during the first persecution of Nero.

Reflections from the Saints

Anxiety proceeds from an ill-regulated desire to be delivered from the evil we experience, or to acquire the good to which we aspire; nevertheless, nothing aggravates evil and hinders good so much as anxiety and worry.

Life in Christ: Catechism #2350

Those who are engaged to marry are called to live chastity in continence. They should see in this time of testing a discovery of mutual respect, an apprenticeship in fidelity, and the hope of receiving one another from God. They should reserve for marriage the expressions of affection that belong to married love. They will help each other grow in chastity.
