OCTOBER 8, 2025 – ST. BRIDGET OF SWEDEN.
Swedish princess. Eight kids. Saintly daughter. Visions, pilgrimages, and a husband who became a monk. Bridget’s life makes royal drama look tame.
OCTOBER 7, 2025 – ST. MARK, POPE.
St. Mark faced no army scarier than himself. Eight months as pope, a lifetime of humility, and a cemetery that still whispers his name.
OCTOBER 6, 2025 – ST. BRUNO.
Bruno ditched big city drama for a forest retreat, dodged bishop politics, and founded the Carthusians—monks so quiet, even the trees whispered.
OCTOBER 5, 2025 – ST. PLACID, MARTYR.
A teenage monk builds a Sicilian monastery, faces marauding barbarians, and meets a fiery, saintly end—with his siblings. Faith tested, history unforgettably cinematic.
OCTOBER 4, 2025 – ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI.
Merchant’s son trades silk for sackcloth, hugs poverty, and greets “Sister Death” with a grin. St. Francis shows how losing everything can mean gaining it all.
OCTOBER 3, 2025 – ST. GERARD, ABBOT.
From noble halls to a tiny cell, St. Gerard swapped luxury for devotion, founded abbeys, and reformed monks—eternal rewards beat courtly banquets every time.
OCTOBER 2, 2025 – THE HOLY GUARDIAN ANGELS.
Hair falls, sparrows drop, and angels take notes. Heaven’s HR department never rests. Respect your celestial babysitter—or risk awkward heavenly side-eye.
OCTOBER 1, 2025 – ST. REMIGIUS, BISHOP.
A 22-year-old reluctant archbishop, a Frankish king, and a baptism that flips France Catholic. Miracles, humility, and a 74-year reign? Wild holy saga.
SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 – ST. JEROME, DOCTOR.
St. Jerome ditched Roman city life for desert solitude, swapped parties for prayer, and ended up rewriting the Bible. Bookworm goals just got serious.
SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 – ST. MICHAEL, ARCHANGEL.
Archangel Michael isn’t just a pretty halo—he’s out here drop-kicking devils, saving Moses, and prepping for the ultimate Antichrist smackdown. Saints don’t play.
