Constantine was king of Cornwall. Unreliable tradition has him married to the daughter of the king of Brittany who on her death ceded his throne to his son and became a monk at St. Mochuda monastery at Rahan, Ireland. He performed menial tasks at the monastery, then studied for the priesthood and was ordained. He went as a missionary to Scotland under St. Columba and then St. Kentigern, preached in Galloway, and became Abbot of a monastery at Govan. In old age, on his way to Kintyre, he was attacked by pirates who cut off his right arm, and he bled to death. He is regarded as Scotland's first martyr. His feast day is March 11th.

Dear Saint,

Pray for the Cardinals to listen to their inner voice in electing the new pope. Let no one act under any blackmail or selfish interest. Let heavenly wisdom which is pure, gentle, peaceable, willing to yield and without any trace of partiality or hypocrisy enrich their heart and soul . Let their faith in Christ be their sole guide and inspiration in electing the new Pope. May the power and spirit of the Lord move them to action in order to be the holy shepherds of the faithful sheep. Amen.

Please pray for Jacob that he finds peace and the right path, for Michelle that doctors can slow the progression of her dementia and for all cancer patients that they deal with their disease with grace and dignity. Thank you dear Lord for making me cancer free.
