St. Aldemar

St. Aldemar

Feastday: March 24
Died: 1080

Abbot and miracle worker, called "the Wise." Born in Capua, Italy, he became a monk in Monte Cassino and was called to the attention of a Princess Aloara of the region. When she built a new convent in Capua, Alder became the director of the religious in the established house. He performed many miracles in this capacity. Aldemar was reassigned by his abbot to Monte Cassino, a move that angered the princess. As a result, Aldemar went to Boiana, Italy, where a companion involved in the dispute tried to kill him. Aldemar fled into the region of Bocchignano, Abruzzi, where he founded several more religious houses.

    I really enjoy reading about the saint of the day. We all try to be more Christ-like on our journey to be better catholics, but its hard, no one can be as perfect as Christ. However, the saints give us hope, as they were human and imperfect. They give me inspiration to keep trying to live as close to the gospel as I can. After all, sinners are saints who keep trying.

    St. Aldemar, of Monte Cassino, so prayerful and close to God, thanks be to God for having helped me to detect a mistake which can now be amended. Continue to see a happy and amicable conclustion to this. Dear Saint Aldemar, I offer my prayers and intercessions to you because I need to celebrate and not mourn the loss of my dearest Mother, Bring peace to me. Help me also to find solace in the company of good Catholic friends and move on with courage and confidence. I will travel in one week's time. Please grant me safe travel and to my daughter a safe and successful tonsillectomy. Heal her, and comfort her. Send the angels to be with her. Amen.

    I think back as to how sinful I was before I asked Christ to enter my life. It was pople like today's Saint who made sure I received the word of life and the peaceful joy it brings. God Bless all.
