Saint Lydia was one of the first people who heard Saint Paul
preach and believed what he said about Jesus. She became a Christian with her
whole household and all were baptized. Then, Paul stayed with her for a while.
She is called “Lydia Purpuraria”, which means “Lydia who sells purple cloth”,
so she must have had a home business in weaving and dying cloth.
Activity
Today, weave some purple cloth of your own. All you need is some
cardboard, yarn and a plastic needle big enough to feed the yarn through.
Follow these instructions.
Saint Lydia, pray for us!
