Wednesday 34th Week of Ordinary Time

 

Pope Clement

Clemens Romanus.jpg
Pope Clement I was the third Pope after Linus and Cletus.
He was said to have been consecrated a bishop by St. Peter himself.

Becoming the 3rd Pope was not an honor.
There were no parades or banquets.

For At the time every Pope was a martyr.
Clement was no different.
He was martyred by having an anchor tied around him and thrown into the sea.

Saints are only glorified in Heaven
After having sacrificed themselves on earth.
