Saint of the day and spiritual life #Évêque

Selon la tradition, Ignace fut disciple des apôtres Pierre et Jean, et aurait connu personnellement plusieurs témoins directs de Jésus-Christ. Né vers 35 dans la province de Syrie et mort à Rome en martyr, probablement en 107 ou 113, Ignace fut le troisième évêque d'Antioche, après saint Pierre et Évode, à qui il succéda vers 68.

Saint John Chrysostom (c. 349–407) is one of the greatest Fathers of the Church, renowned for his eloquence, austere life, and commitment to social justice. His nickname, "Chrysostom," means "golden mouth" in Greek, due to the beauty and power of his homilies and teachings.

Saint Augustine (354–430) is one of the most prominent figures of Latin Christianity. Born in Thagaste (present-day Souk Ahras in Algeria) to a devout Christian mother, Saint Monica, and a pagan father, he received a solid education in rhetoric and philosophy. At a very young age, he turned away from the Christian faith to devote himself to a worldly life and the search for truth in various philosophies, notably Manichaeism.
