CITY OF GOD IN EXILE Ss. Cyriacus, Largus, and Smaragdus, Martyrs 2028-08-08 - Time after Pentecost - Semi-Double - red PLAIN-LANGUAGE GUIDE FOR TODAY Martyr: a Christian who was killed rather than deny Christ or abandon the Faith. Apostolic: belonging to the faith, mission, teaching, or authority handed down from Christ through the apostles. Deacon: an ordained minister who assists bishops and priests and is specially entrusted with service, proclamation, and charity. The full Breviary lessons preserve an older English translation. Read the modern explanation first; it identifies the people, event, and doctrine before the historical wording appears. TODAY IN THE ROMAN YEAR The green season is not empty time. It is growth under grace. The pilgrim must ask whether the seed of doctrine is becoming virtue, whether prayer is becoming habit, whether zeal is becoming charity, and whether Catholic truth is governing ordinary choices. Give yourself to Our Lady as a loving servant so that her strongest inclination may unite you more perfectly to Jesus Christ. Entrust yourself to Our Lady's strongest inclination and ask her to unite every faculty, desire, possession, relationship, and duty to Jesus. "The strongest inclination of Mary is to unite us to Jesus Christ her Son; and the strongest inclination of the Son is, that we should come to Him by His holy Mother." St. Louis-Marie de Montfort, True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin, no. 75 Our Lady cannot become an obstacle between the soul and Jesus because her maternal will is entirely united to His. Other creatures may draw an inordinate attachment toward themselves; Mary receives self-gift only to carry it toward her Son. Her direction is always Christward, never self-enclosed. Test every attachment by this inclination. True devotion should increase knowledge of Christ, hatred of sin, fidelity to doctrine, worthy sacramental life, obedience to commandments, acceptance of the Cross, performance of duty, and charity for souls. Ask Mary to remove whatever in your devotion fails to unite you to Jesus. PRACTICE Name the errors you are tempted to soften, then answer them with clear Catholic truth. QUOTE OF THE DAY "For the glory of God is a living man; and the life of man consists in beholding God." St. Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies, Book IV, chapter 20, §7 NOVENA IN PROGRESS Novena for the Assumption - Day 3 of 9 Preparing for Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary on 2028-08-15. Ask Our Lady to detach the soul from earth and order hope toward Heaven. O Lord, we beseech Thee, forgive the transgressions of Thy servants, and, forasmuch as by our own deeds we cannot please Thee, may we find safety through the prayers of the Mother of Thy Son and our Lord. Through the Same our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, world without end. Amen. Renounce every earthly attachment that weakens prayer or purity, beginning with the attachment that most often draws the heart from God. ROMAN MARTYROLOGY - August 8 At Rome, the holy martyrs Cyriacus, deacon, -" Largus, and Smaragdus, with twenty others, who suffered on the 16th of March, in the persecution of Diocletian and Maximian. Their bodies were buried on the Salarian road by the priest John, but were on this day translated by pope St. Marcellus to the estate of Lucina, on the Ostian way. Afterwards they were brought to Rome, and placed in the Church of St. Mary in Via Lata (the title of a cardinal-deacon). — At Anzarba, in Cilicia, St. Marinus, an aged man, who was scourged, racked, and lacerated, and died by being exposed to wild beasts, in the time of the emperor Diocletian and the governor Lysias. — Also, the holy martyrs Eleutherius and Leonides, who underwent martrydom by fire. — In Persia, St. Hormisdas, a martyr, under king Sapor. — At Cyzicum, in Hellespont, St. Emilian, bishop, who ended his life in exile after having suffered much from the emperor Leo for the worship of holy images. — In Crete, St. Myron, a bishop renowned for miracles. — At Vienne, in France, St. Severus, priest and confessor, who undertook a painful journey from India in order to preach the Gospel in that city, and converted a great number of Pagans to the faith of Christ by his labors and miracles. HIGHLIGHTED SAINT Ss. Cyriacus, Largus, and Smaragdus A deacon and his companions faithful through prison and death. St. Cyriacus was a deacon imprisoned with Ss. Largus and Smaragdus during the persecution of Diocletian and Maximian. The Breviary remembers his works of mercy, the conversions and baptisms that followed his ministry, and his return to Rome, where he and his companions were tortured and put to death rather than deny Christ. The Roman Martyrology adds that twenty other Christians suffered with them and that their bodies were reverently translated by Pope St. Marcellus. Their feast teaches that the Church remembers both the named leaders and the hidden companions because Christ forgets no faithful confession unto death. Let these martyrs strengthen both public and hidden fidelity. Grace made prison a place of ministry, and no suffering could erase the fruit of their confession. FROM MATINS Martyrdom remembered, and living faith proved by works. Matins - Third Nocturn - Ss. Cyriacus, Largus, and Smaragdus, Martyrs Roman Breviary and Pope St. Gregory the Great "A faith which worketh by love." - The proper lesson preserves the martyrs' confession under Diocletian and Maximian, keeping their names within the Church's public prayer. - The proper lesson shows St. Cyriacus continuing works of mercy and winning converts while prison and persecution pressed upon him and his companions. - St. Gregory teaches that the outward signs granted to the first preaching of the Gospel point toward the enduring proof of faith in holy works. Be willing to remain hidden, but never inactive. The martyrs teach confession under suffering, and St. Gregory teaches that living faith must be made visible in charity and obedience. FULL BREVIARY LESSONS Fourth Lesson - Complete Proper Lesson Cyriacus the Deacon was long kept in prison with Sisinius, Largus, and Smaragdus, and wrought many wonderful works. Among other things he by his prayers freed from a devil Arthemia, a daughter of Diocletian, and, being sent to Sapor, King of the Persians, also delivered his daughter Jobia from a foul spirit. He baptized the king, her father, and four hundred and thirty others, and afterwards returned to Rome. He was arrested by command of the Emperor Maximian, and dragged in chains before his chariot. Then after four days he was brought forth from prison, had boiling pitch poured upon him, was stretched on a block, [and belaboured with a cudgel,] and at last was slain with the axe, along with Largus, Smaragdus, and twenty others, at the gardens of Sallust, on the Salarian Way. On this Way were their bodies buried by John the Priest, on the 16th day of March, [in the year of our Lord 303,] but afterwards, on the 8th of August, Pope Marcellus and the noble lady Lucina took them and wrapped them in linen, and embalmed them with costly ointments, and carried them to the farm belonging to the said lady Lucina, at the seventh mile-stone from Rome on the road to Ostia. Seventh Lesson - Pope St. Gregory the Great on Mark 16 The Lesson is taken from the Holy Gospel according to Mark (xvi. 15). At that time: JESUS said unto His disciples: Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature. And so on. Homily by Pope St. Gregory the Great (29th on the Gospels). By the words "every creature" we may understand every tribe of the Gentiles. Of aforetime it had been said, "Go not into the way of the Gentiles," (Matth. x. 5,) but now, "Preach the Gospel to every creature," that, since the Jews had proudly rejected the preaching of the Apostles, that might become our gain which was the seal of their condemnation. But when the Eternal Truth sendeth forth His disciples to preach, what doth He but scatter seed over the field of the world? He scattered abroad a few grains for seed, that He may afterward reap an abundant harvest in our faith. Eighth Lesson - Pope St. Gregory the Great The great harvest of faithful souls throughout the whole world would never have sprung up, if the hand of the Lord had not first scattered those chosen grains of preachers over the reasonable soil of men's minds. Then is written, "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be damned." Now, perchance, thou sayest in thine heart: I believe, and therefore I shall be saved. True, if to thy faith thou dost add works. He only hath a living faith whose life doth not give the lie to his profession. It is of this that Paul speaketh, where he saith of certain vain believers, "They profess that they know God; but in works they deny Him." (Tit. i. 16.) Ninth Lesson - Conclusion of Pope St. Gregory's Homily "And these signs shall follow them that believe: In My name they shall cast out devils, they shall speak with new tongues, they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." My brethren, these signs do not follow us. Do we, then, not believe? Nay. The truth is, these things were needful when the Church was young. That she might grow by the increase of the faithful, she needed to be nourished with miracles. So we, when we plant a young tree, continually water and tend it, till we see that it hath taken firm root in the earth: but when once it hath taken firm root, it can grow of itself. Hence Paul saith of tongues: "Tongues are for a sign not to them that believe, but to them that believe not." (1 Cor. xiv. 22.) THE PILGRIM'S SPIRITUAL CONFERENCE Justification Requires True Conversion The Church places this truth before you today: The sinner is not healed by excuse or affirmation, but by grace, repentance, faith, hope, charity, and the turning of the soul toward God. Do not hurry past it as though doctrine belonged only to books and controversies. A revealed truth is also a light by which the soul must judge its loyalties, its fears, its habits, and the duties immediately before it. Catholic mercy restores the sinner to truth; it never names sin as holiness or treats amendment as optional. The grace to be practiced is Apostolic fidelity unto martyrdom, drawn from today's saintly witness. Ask God for more than the natural appearance of this virtue. Temperament may make an action seem easy for a time, but supernatural virtue remains faithful because God is worthy of obedience, even when feeling offers no assistance and no one notices the cost. Practice union with Christ by allowing Mary's faith, humility, purity, obedience, charity, and recollection to shape the whole day. There is also an enemy to recognize: Resist false mercy, which comforts the sinner while leaving the wound unhealed. Do not study this danger only in other people. Look quietly for the door by which it seeks entrance into your own soul - perhaps through delay, curiosity, resentment, human respect, attachment to comfort, or the desire to control the outcome. Dying to self today means choosing apostolic fidelity unto martyrdom when pride, comfort, fear, resentment, or human respect asks for control. Do the faithful act and entrust its fruit to divine Providence, God's wise and loving governance of all things. Place effort and outcome into Our Lady's hands so that the whole offering may be presented to her Divine Son. Confidence in God is not passivity: obey, pray, work, and accept that visible success, consolation, or immediate relief may not be given. God remains faithful when the duty is hidden and the outcome uncertain. Therefore, perform the duty that belongs to you, use the lawful means God has provided, and then surrender the fruit. Accept the severing of attachments that appear devotional or good but actually turn the heart toward self rather than Jesus. Perform all prayers and duties with Mary and through Mary so that Jesus may be known, loved, obeyed, and glorified more perfectly. The Church's witness: this truth manifests the Church's mark of holy; the witness placed beside it is Council of Trent. Your resolution before God: Name the errors you are tempted to soften, then answer them with clear Catholic truth. Carry this word: There is no holiness where heresy is treated as harmless. THE PILGRIM'S MIRROR "As long as we live in this world we may not be fully without temptation." Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ, Book I, chapter 13, p. 21 The presence of temptation does not itself prove that you have consented or that prayer has failed. The Christian remains in warfare. Temptation humbles presumption, reveals the need for grace, and gives the will an occasion to prefer God in deed rather than merely in desire. Do not converse needlessly with the temptation. Call upon Jesus and Mary, leave the occasion when you can, turn the imagination toward something lawful, and perform the nearest duty. If you fall, repent promptly; do not let wounded pride delay your return to mercy. Today's Practice: Prepare a firm response for today's habitual temptation: an aspiration, departure from the occasion, and prompt return to duty. DAILY EXAMEN Judge every Marian act by its Christward fruit and surrender whatever remained sentimental, self-seeking, or resistant to conversion. - For what grace or mercy should I thank God today? - What sin, fault, neglected duty, or resistance to grace must I confess? - What definite amendment will I carry into tomorrow? PRAYER O Lord, give me hatred of error without hatred of souls. Let charity make me clearer, humbler, more patient, and more willing to defend what saves. DAILY RULE FOR THE PILGRIM A brief rule to keep every day: Begin with morning prayer Adore the Blessed Trinity and offer the whole day to Jesus through Mary before other duties claim the mind. Keep the Angelus Pause morning, noon, and evening to remember the Incarnation. Seek Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament Attend Holy Mass when duty permits; otherwise make a Spiritual Communion and renew desire for Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Return to Jesus and Mary Use frequent holy aspirations during work, waiting, suffering, and temptation. Pray the Rosary Keep the mysteries of Christ before the mind with Our Lady and learn to imitate what they contain. End with night prayer and examen Give thanks, confess faults, forgive injuries, make a practical amendment, and entrust the night to Our Lady.

La virtud católica ordena el alma y sus actos hacia Dios; está gobernada por la verdad, fortalecida por la gracia, purificada por el arrepentimiento y perfeccionada por la caridad. Ponga la virtud en práctica de este modo: Remain faithful in hidden duties. Ponga la virtud en práctica de este modo: Honor forgotten martyrs with prayer.
