Friends of the Rosary,
Today, January 28, the Catholic Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), a genius thinker, philosopher, and theologian, who earned the title of the Angelic Doctor, a designation that, as Pope Benedict XVI said, expresses “the sublimity of his thought and the purity of his life.”
Considered the Dominican Order’s greatest glory, his Summa Theologiae is a masterly synthesis of faith and reason and the classic text for a comprehensive theological formation.
Born in Aquino, Italy, he led a remarkable life of prayer and remained modest, a perfect model of childlike simplicity and goodness.
He cherished a tender devotion to St. Agnes, constantly carrying relics of this virgin martyr on his person. He died in 1274, at the age of fifty, in the abbey of Fossa Nuova. He is the patron saint of schools and of sacred theology.
Ave Maria!
Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!
Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
