Today we honour Saint Teresa of Calcutta — Mother Teresa, whose Feast Day is celebrated on September 5th. 🙏🤍

Mother Teresa dedicated her life to serving Christ through the poorest, the sick, the forgotten, and those who felt they had no one. Her life reminds us that holiness is not always found in great accomplishments, but in the small acts of love, kindness, mercy, and compassion we offer one another each day.

She saw the face of Jesus in every person she encountered and taught the world that no act of love is ever too small. Her example continues to challenge us to open our hearts, care for those around us, and bring hope wherever there is suffering.

On her Feast Day, may Saint Teresa of Calcutta intercede for our families and our community. May she inspire us to be more compassionate, more generous, and more willing to serve others without expecting anything in return.

Saint Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us. 🙏
Sant’Ippolito, pray for us. ❤️🇮🇹

“Do small things with great love.”

🙏🇮🇹 FEAST DAY OF SANT’IPPOLITO MARTIRE 🇮🇹🙏
August 13

Today, we honour and celebrate Sant’Ippolito Martire, a beloved protector whose story of faith, courage, sacrifice, and devotion to God has inspired generations.

For the people of Sant’Ippolito, Cosenza, and for families who carried this devotion with them across the world, today is more than a feast day. It is a reminder of where we come from, the faith of those who came before us, and the traditions they entrusted to our care.

Our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents prayed to Sant’Ippolito in moments of joy and hardship. They carried his name in their hearts, celebrated his feast, and passed their devotion from one generation to the next. Today, we are blessed to continue what they began.

Here in Windsor, our devotion to Sant’Ippolito keeps us connected not only to our faith, but to our Calabrese roots, our families, our ancestors, and our beloved hometown of Sant’Ippolito in Cosenza. Though generations and an ocean may separate us, the traditions and faith of our ancestors continue to live through us.

May Sant’Ippolito continue to watch over our families, protect our community, strengthen our faith, and guide the generations that follow us.

May we never forget the sacrifices of those who came before us, and may we always have the courage to preserve the beautiful faith, culture, and traditions they left in our hands.

Sant’Ippolito Martire, prega per noi. 🙏❤️

Viva Sant’Ippolito! 🇮🇹❤️🇨🇦
Buona Festa di Sant’Ippolito a tutti!

With faith and devotion,
