San Pedro de Montes Abbey at Vierzon in Spain
We have very little information about this Saint. All we know is that he had been a Monk in the Monastery of St Peter in Montes and a disciple of the Abbot, St Gennadius (Died 936). When St Gennadius was Consecrated as the Bishop of the Astorga Diocese, Vincent was elected as the Abbot of the Monastery of St Peter.
Both Master (who returned to his Monastery to retire) and Disciple died in their Monastery and were buried there.
Passionate Catholic.
Being a Catholic is a way of life - a love affair "Religion must be like the air we breathe..."- St John Bosco
Prayer is what the world needs combined with the example of our lives which testify to the Light of Christ.
This site, which is now using the Traditional Calendar, will mainly concentrate on Daily Prayers, Novenas and the Memorials and Feast Days of our friends in Heaven, the Saints who went before us and the great blessings the Church provides in our Catholic Monthly Devotions.
This Site is placed under the Patronage of my many favourite Saints and especially, St Paul.
"For the Saints are sent to us by God
as so many sermons.
We do not use them, it is they who move us
and lead us, to where we had not expected to go.”

This site adheres to the pre-Vatican II Catholic Church and all her teachings. .
