SAINT OF THE DAY - ST. PETER CHRYSOLOGUS
CATHOLIC NEWS AGENCY, JULY 30, 2006
St. Peter Chrysologus is a Doctor of the Church. He was born in Italy around 406 and was named archbishop of Ravenna in 439. There he encountered a strong pagan influence and many lapsed faithful. Through his efforts, many people returned to the faith and paganism was eradicated in Ravenna.
St. Peter was a very caring pastor and an excellent preacher. Due to his excellent homilies, the people gave him the name "Chrysologus" (of golden words). Many of these texts still exist. He died at the age of 44 in the year 450.
