Memorial of Saints Cyril, Monk, and Methodius, Bishop
A very happy feast day of Sts. Cyril and Methodius, and of course of St. Valentine! Let’s look at St. Cyril and Methodius, brothers who loved our Lord and wanted God’s message spread to the Slavic people, by translating the gospels to the different Slavic nations. St. Cyril once said, “However tired and physically worn out I am, I will go with joy to that land; with joy I depart for the sake of the Christian faith.” Throughout the week, I believe our theme has been faith. Usually, I tell people on campus that I am exhausted and I also, believe it or not, complain about it too! But the good thing is God gives us things that we can handle. He loves us so much and sees the faith that we have in him, that he makes sure to protect us and keep us safe in his most sacred heart!
