Morning Prayer - TUESDAY, 13 Dec 2022

LISTEN | Morning Prayer - December 13, 2022 | Memorial of St. Lucy, Virgin and Martyr

Lucy was born around 283 in Syracuse, Sicily, of a rich and noble Christian family. After her father's death, her mother arranged a marriage for her, not knowing that Lucy had made a vow of virginity. Later her mother agreed with Lucy's desire to give herself to God. In his rage, her disappointed suitor denounced her as a Christian to Paschasius, the governor of Sicily. In 304, during the reign of Diocletian, she was tortured for her faith and finally stabbed to death.

St. Lucy, virgin and martyr, pray for us!
