St. Vitus was a young noble Sicilian. Together with Modestus, his tutor, and Crescentia, his nurse, he was plunged into a caldron of molten lead. After having tested them like gold in a furnace, God delivered them from all these sufferings.

Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: Let His praise be in the church of the saints. ~Gradual

Because if thou die with Him, thou shalt also live with Him; and if thou art His companion in suffering, thou shalt also be His companion in glory. ~Imitation: Book II

Ideal~ This is the most interesting group of saints of the whole year. You must read the account of their lives.

Today~ How much do the troubles and the distress of others affect you? It is rather a dreadful thing to assume the attitude of Cain “Am I my brother’s keeper?”

Slogan~ There is nothing so kingly as kindness~ Phoebe Cary
