St. Blaise, Bishop and Martyr and St. Ansgar, Bishop
Optional Memorial
February 3rd marks the optional memorial of two great saints.
St. Blaise, Bishop of Sebaste and holy martyr, was a Christian of the 4th century living in modern day Armenia. He is venerated as one of the 14 Holy Martyrs of the Church and was one of the most popular saints in the Middle Ages. St. Blaise was a perceptive physician known for his skill with throat ailments, caring for animals, and using his Oriental training for the good health of all he encountered.
Also, today we remember St. Ansgar, champion of Sweden and Denmark as well as the first Archbishop to Hamburg. A devoted Benedictine, this pious monk was active in social reforms including mitigating the slave trade, opening schools and hospitals, ransoming captives, and negotiating with secular leaders of his day. He is lovingly remembered as the “Apostle to the North.”

Let us "sanctify our day" by praying the Liturgy of the Hours.
The Liturgy of the Hours (Latin: Liturgia Horarum) or Divine Office (Latin: Officium Divinum) or Work of God (Latin: Opus Dei) or canonical hours,often referred to as the Breviary,is the official set of prayers "marking the hours of each day and sanctifying the day with prayer".It consists primarily of psalms supplemented by hymns, readings and other prayers and antiphons. Together with the Mass, it constitutes the official public prayer life of the Church. The Liturgy of the Hours is the prayer of the whole People of God. In it, Christ himself “continues his priestly work through his Church.” His members participate according to their own place in the Church and the circumstances of their lives. The laity, too, is encouraged to recite the divine office either with the priests, among themselves or individually.
Let us join the Universal Church in praying the Divine Office.
.
Amid coronavirus outbreak, with many people unable to attend Mass and isolated in their homes, Divine Office is inviting us to join in prayer. We hope more brothers and sisters will find spiritual nourishment, strength, and consolation in praying the Liturgy of the Hours as we all go through these difficult, uncertain times.
We pray that this COVID19 come to end and for world peace.
