Today on the liturgical calendar…

… St. Hedwig.

What?

Just kidding. St. Hedwig is the patroness of brides and death of children so I should be more respectful, I know.

Also on today’s calendar, St. Margaret Mary Alacoque. She’s the Sacred Heart of Jesus saint who received a lot of criticism for her visions of the Crucified Christ. Other Catholics really are our worst enemies at times.
