Dear Freepers in Christ,

Today, it seems is the Feast Day of Saint Florian -- He was a Military Officer in the Roman Army.

Check out http://www.jesus-passion.com today. It is a terrific and awesome web site. I would say it is only second to "A Voice in the Desert" in terms of its awesomeness.


SAINT FLORIAN, MARTYR

FEAST DAY: MAY 4TH

Florian was a Roman military officer stationed in Noricum in Austria, during the Chrisitan persecution under the Roman co-Emperor Diocletian (reigned 284-305).

The governor in this local area was ordered by Diocletian to look for Christians. Florian acknowledged himself as a Christian to the authorities who then arrested him and tortured him. He was beaten and then they slowly pealed the skin off his body, but he would not deny his faith in the Lord Jesus.

The authorities then weighed his body with heavy stones and flung him into the River Enns where he drowned to death in the year 304.

Saint Florian is a patron of Poland and Upper Austria.

Intercessory Prayer:Ask Saint Florian to intercede for your needs today.

Saint Florian, please pray for (make your prayer request).

IN THE RISEN LORD JESUS CHRIST,
