Things Not Said By St. Lawrence

(Title shamelessly cribbed from PaulCat at Alive and Young)

*Welcome to all the NCRegister and Pulp.it readers! I'm glad you came by - become a Follower!*

Today is the feast day of St Lawrence, the saint I'm named after. I like this guy.

Here are some things he never said (as far as we know):

Happy feast day to all the other Larry's and Lawrence's out there!

(Art: The Martyrdom of St. Lawrence, by Valentin de Buologne, 1621-22)

Saint of the Day

November 15, 2011

St. Albert the Great (1206-1280)

Albert was a Dominican philosopher, theologian, and scientist. He taught at Cologne and Paris, where he had Thomas Aquinas among his pupils, and compiled an encyclopedia of the learning of his day. His study of the natural sciences was far ahead of his time.

Reflections from the Saints

It is by the path of love, which is charity, that God draws near to man, and man to God. But where charity is not found, God cannot dwell. If, then, we possess charity, we possess God, for "God is Charity."

– St. Albert the Great
