Feast of St. Blaise

St. Blaise is the patron saint of throat ailments and of physicians. When Bishop Blaise was captured for the Faith, on His way to prison He encountered a boy who was choking from a fish bone stuck in his throat. After praying over him, the boy was cured. For this reason, on His feast day, the parishes of the Catholic Church have a blessing of the throats. The holy saint suffered martyrdom under Licinius in 316 AD.

Please listen to a good sermon on St. Blaise preached by Rev. Fr. David Hewko, who firmly stands fast by the Teachings of the Traditional Catholic Church: https://youtu.be/M4PN1YMHZYI

St. Blaise, pray for us!
