New Advent

Saint of the Day

St. Peter of Tarantaise (1102-1175)
Peter was an archbishop who devoted much energy to reforming his diocese. He removed corrupt and immoral clergy, aided the poor, and promoted education. He was a trusted advisor to popes and kings.

Reflections from the Saints

God loves the poor, and consequently He loves those who have an affection for the poor. For when we love anyone very much, we also love his friends.
