St. Stanislaus, Bishop and Martyr (7 May) ~ Dom Prosper Guéranger

About this sermon

Saint Stanislaus, Bishop and Martyr, stands among the great defenders of truth, morality, and the liberty of the Church. In this reading from The Liturgical Year by Dom Prosper Guéranger, we hear the powerful story of the holy Bishop of Krakow who fearlessly rebuked the immoral king of Poland and ultimately gave his life at the altar for Christ. This moving meditation reflects on the unbroken line of Catholic martyrs throughout history — men and women who defended the faith, unity, justice, charity, and holiness of the Church even unto death. Saint Stanislaus reminds us that true Christian courage comes from the risen Christ.
