St. Who?

2/14/2019

In the Calendar of the Roman Catholic Church, February 14th is the Memorial of Ss. Cyril and Methodius, the pair of brothers who took the Gospel to the peoples of Eastern Europe. You can learn more about the "Apostles to the Slavs" here.

Relics of both saints are interred in the Basilica of San Clemente in Rome (depicted right - a church under the care of the Irish Dominican Friars). St. Cyril was originally entombed in the crypt of that Church, and his tomb (above) is still accessible as part of tour of the excavations beneath the Church.

The Joyful Friar

These are the everyday musings and reflections from the life of Father Bart Hutcherson, OP, a Catholic Priest and Dominican Friar from the Western United States. I toyed with the idea of using the title "Ordinary Time" for this blog, but was afraid that people might be looking for deep liturgical reflections under that title. Nothing so sublime here - just the day-to-day. My friend, Carrie Rehak, suggested the title "The Everyday Mysteries." I love it. it captures my understanding of the everyday. God makes himself known in the everyday. I hope he reveals himself in some of these reflections too.
