19th January - Saint Fabian
Having been chosen as a child of God, Fabian became a living tradition of faith and courage in living out the life of Christ and showing it to the world.
Saint Fabian, you were divinely chosen as the Vicar of Christ on earth. In your humility and obedience to the will of God, you not only bore this heavy responsibility but also died for it. Please pray for us, that we may have the same courage as you, to face an un-Christian culture bravely, and accept the consequences of such a choice, no matter the cost - from My Catholic Life.
