St. Apollonia was a deaconess that lived during the 3rd century. She suffered persecution and willingly chose to die rather than deny Jesus. She is the patron saint of dentistry.

Christians are still persecuted today, especially if their views go against what the secular society is saying. Christians being killed for their beliefs is rare, but it still happens. Pray this week for all Christians who are persecuted. Pray as well that you will always remain strong in your faith.

If you have children, consider trading in the tooth fairy for St. Apollonia. St. Apollonia can give the tooth fairy an early retirement and start bringing the money and a holy card each time your child loses a

Presidents' Day (US) Family Day (CAN) Lent begins this week and is such a great time for us to grow in our faith. We are called to pray more, eat less, and give to the poor.

If you haven't already, spend some time praying about how you can pray more, eat less, and give to the poor this Lent.
