History
Saint Anthony Mary Zaccaria was a doctor who
later became a priest in the year 1528, working mainly in hospitals and poor
houses. He started a religious congregation called the Barnabites that was
focused on teaching people about the Eucharist and about Jesus crucified for
our sins. Saint Anthony got a lot of people to use a 40-hour prayer devotional before
the Blessed Sacrament to help them grow in their faith in Jesus. He also revived
an old tradition of ringing church bells at 3 p.m. on Fridays to remind people of the Crucifixion.
Activity
Talk about why Jesus’ death on the
Cross is a crucial part of our salvation. And since today is Friday, ring bells
at 3 p.m. and thank Jesus for dying for our sins.
