Virtues, EXPLAINED!

God Himself is Truth. Therefore, if we belong to God, we must live truthfully — in small matters and in large ones, so that the witness we bear to the ultimate Truth of God shall always be taken seriously.

INSPIRATION FOR THE WEEK —

In his mercy, Jesus sent his Apostles into ministry — and the Apostles are still ministering today. We see them in the sanctuary, in the confessional. They are our priests, sent to shepherd Christ’s sheep. This week, let’s pray for our shepherds

Patriarch of Constantinople, modem Istanbul. He was born in Syracuse, Sicily, and builta monastery on the island of Chios. After some time in Constantinople, he was sent to Rome in 815 as the representative of Patriarch Nicephorus, who was exiled by Emperor Leo V the Armenian for refusing to yield to the imperial decrees on the destruction of icons. Methodius returned in 821 and was himself scourged and imprisoned for seven years. Finally, in 842, Empress Theodora arranged for his elevation as patriarch of Constantinople. In this office, he convened a council and promoted orthodoxy and the veneration of icons after the long years of iconoclasticism. Methodius was a prolific writer, being the author of a life of St. Theopanes.

Flag Day is an annual observance in the United States celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the U.S. flag on that date in 1777 by resolution of the Second Continental Congress. While it is not an official federal holiday, it is widely celebrated across the nation.

History and Origins:
The First Resolution: On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress resolved that the flag of the United States be 13 stripes (alternating red and white) and 13 stars (white on a blue field).
National Recognition: Flag Day was first established by presidential proclamation in 1916 by Woodrow Wilson. It was made an official national observance by an Act of Congress signed by President Harry Truman in August 1949.

Symbolism
The 13 red and white stripes represent the original 13 colonies. The 50 stars on the current version of the flag represent the current 50 U.S. states.

How It is Observed
The President issues an annual proclamation designating June 14 as Flag Day and the week it falls in as National Flag Week.
Americans are encouraged to display the U.S. flag outside their homes and businesses.
Communities often celebrate with patriotic parades, essay contests, and flag-retirement ceremonies. You can learn more about the specific traditions and meanings of the holiday from The Old Farmer’s Almanac.

Saint Anthony was born Fernando Martins in Lisbon, Portugal. He was born into a wealthy family and by the age of fifteen asked to be sent to the Abbey of Santa Cruz in Coimbra, the then capital of Portugal. During his time in the Abbey, he learned theology and Latin.

Following his ordination to the priesthood, he was named guestmaster and was responsible for the abbey's hospitality. When Franciscan friars settled a small hermitage outside Coimbra dedicated to Saint Anthony of Egypt, Fernando felt a longing to join them.

Fernando eventually received permission to leave the Abbey so he could join the new Franciscan Order. When he was admitted, he changed his name to Anthony.

Anthony then traveled to Morocco to spread God's truth, but became extremely sick and was returned to Portugal to recover. The return voyage was blown off-course and the party arrived in Sicily, from which they traveled to Tuscany. Athony was assigned to the hermitage of San Paolo after local friars considered his health.

As he recovered, Anthony spent his time praying and studying.
