Saint/s of the Day – 23 July – Saint Theophilus (Died c302) andSaint Trophimus (Died c302) Martyrs

Saint/s of the Day – 23 July – Saint Theophilus (Died c302) and
Saint Trophimus (Died c302) Martyrs of Rome. T hese two were probably brothers and also more than likely citizens of Rome.

The only information we have is from the Roman Martyrology (1914) as below.

The Roman Martyrology reads today: “The birthday of the holy Martyrs Trophimus and Theophilus, who received their Crowns of Martyrdom by being beaten with stones, scorched with fire and finally struck with the sword in the time of the Emperor Diocletian.

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.” Charles Cardinal Journet (1891-1975) This site adheres to the pre-Vatican II Catholic Church and all her teachings. . PLEASE ADVISE ME OF ANY GLARING TYPOS etc - In June 2021 I lost 100% sight in my left eye and sometimes miss errors. Thank you and I pray all those who visit here will be abundantly blessed.
