Saints of the 17 of october

• Saint Ignatius of Antioch

  Memory of St. Ignatius, Bishop and martyr, who, disciple of the Apostle St. John, was the second successor to saint Peter based in Antioch, being sentenced to the torment of the menagerie in time of the Emperor Trajan, and moved to Rome, where he consummated his glorious martyrdom. During the trip, as he experienced the ferocity of sentinels, similar to the one of the leopards, he wrote seven letters to various churches, which urged the brothers to serve God together with the own Bishop and to not prevent to be sacrificed as a victim for Christ.
