Icon - St. Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage Source: Wikipedia Commons |
The calendar in my copy of the Book of Alternative Services for our Canadian church marks a "Mem" (Memorial Day) for St. Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage, on September 13...but today his ministry and martyrdom were remembered in reflection and prayer at the Morning Prayer Service from the Canterbury Cathedral. Wikipedia has his date of death -- as a martyr -- as September 14, coincident with Holy Cross Day. Whatever the date, it is important to take a few moments to remember St. Cyprian, for whom our parish is named.
May this bless your day.
