Saint of the Day
St. John Boste (16th century)
After studying at Oxford, John travelled to France to became a priest. He then returned to northern England where he became the object of a massive manhunt. Betrayed, arrested, and taken to London, he was crippled on the rack and was later hanged, drawn, and quartered.
Reflections from the Saints
The faith of those who live their faith is a serene faith. What you long for will be given you; what you love will be yours for ever.
– Pope St. Leo the Great
