Happy Chair Day!

Hello. 

My name is Daryl. 

And I am the Chair of St. Peter. 

I am here because today, February 22nd, is an ancient and mighty feast day in honor of...me.

Myself. 

I, the Chair of St. Peter. 

Now I shall recite an epic poem that tells of the heroic deeds of...me. 

Ahem. 

Oh Great! Oh Glorious Daryl!

Happy C&M day!

Hi there! I'm Methodius!

Um...and I'm his brother Cyril.

And today is-

Happy St. Scholastica day!

Today is the feast of St. Scholastica, and I think we should celebrate it, for three reasons:

1. She's got the coolest name ever. I mean, you know she was smart if that's what her mom and dad named her.
   
2. We don't know much about her, aside from her famous twin brother. She needs a little more love.
   
3. Because of this story:
   

Her brother was accustomed to visit her every year, for "she could not be sated or wearied with the words of grace which flowed from his lips." On his last visit, after a day passed in spiritual converse, the Saint, knowing that her end was near, said, "My brother, leave me not, I pray you, this night, but discourse with me till dawn on the bliss of those who see God in heaven." St. Benedict would not break his rule at the bidding of natural affection; and then the Saint bowed her head on her hands and prayed; and there arose a storm so violent that St. Benedict could not return to his monastery, and they passed the night in heavenly conversation.


 
I just think it's kind of cool. And I wonder how it played out…

St. Brother, I am at the brink of death. Will you keep me company? 

Sorry. Gonna be late for Vespers.
