St. Martin of Tours Comments
When Sulpicius Severus first met Martin of Tours he was stunned. Not only did the bishop offer him hospitality at his residence -- a monk's cell in the wilderness instead of a palace -- but Martin washed Sulpicius' hands before dinner and his feet in the evening. But Sulpicius was just the kind of person Martin showed the greatest honor to -- a humble man without any rank or privilege. People of nobility and position were turned away from his ...

I AN ADESCENT OF MARTIN SAINT JENNA DOOLING GOD BLESS
My favourite saint and now i know why. a worthy man who i am proud of. A large stained glass window of him is in my church at Fawley, Hants.
The message was very helpful but what can i do to be as faithful as he was
helpful for homework
I would love to see this saint in real life.
He is the best saint ever!
he is a awesome guy
This saint offers us a beautiful model for living the truly Christian life, and this summary of his life was a joy to read. So inspiring. Thank you.
Reading this article made me feel like I was there and walking with Saint Martin. Saints like Martin of Tours inspire us all to be better Christians and to reach out to others who are less fortunate or misguided. His not forgetting his past is something we can all identify with and hope that we, too, can let go of after confessing our faults to ensure our salvation. What a nice story and thank God for Sulpicius Severus. God bless us all.
Cool made easier for me to look for this saint because of this site... :)
Very helpful as I am preparing for the reflection to be delivered on 11th Nov.It always helps to know the backround of the Saints
Good article- what about the story with the geese? And the connection to eating goose in some countries on that day?
This article is very useful for people doing reports on saints. It had all the necessary information I needed.

In the country of Malta (Europe) we have only one church dedicated to St. Martin of Tours. For any information you can view it on: www.sanmartinbahrija.com
