December 27, 2024, Feast of St. John, Apostle and Evangelist, Holy Rosary (Sorrowful Mysteries)

Friends of the Rosary,

Merry and Holy Christmas!

Today, December 27, is the feast day of Saint John, Apostle and Evangelist, "the disciple whom Jesus loved."

He was the apostle who remained at the foot of the Cross. He was also in the Transfiguration and was one of the first witnesses to the Resurrection. To him, Jesus entrusted his Mother.

John was honored as one of the three pillars of the Church.

After the persecution of Herod Agrippa, in which his brother was beheaded, John traveled to Asia Minor, where he composed his Gospel and epistles. On the island of Patmos, while he was in exile, he wrote the book of Revelation.

He died in Ephesus around the year 100.

Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!

Come, Holy Spirit, come!

To Jesus through Mary!
