Project BLACK MAMBA

Today is the memorial of Saint Ursula† (martyred circa 384), patroness—though not foundress—of the Ursulines, formally known as the Order of Saint Ursula, & the Angelines, formally known as the Company of Saint Ursula: Saint-link & Wikipedia-link, Order-link Ursulines & Order-link Angelines.

Commentary: Legendary & not historical, you say? Pish posh! Saint Ursula & her companions may have been removed from the General Roman Calendar, but they remain in the Roman Martyrology, & that's authoritative enough for me. Additionally, the good works done by the Ursulines & the Angelines in her name cannot be denied.

Scripture of the Day
The Gospel according to Matthew, chapter eighteen.
