Today we celebrate St. Charles Borromeo.
St. Charles is the patron saint of catechists, catechumens, and seminarians.
St. Charles made his own the words of Christ: "...I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me" (Matthew 25:35-36). Charles saw Christ in his neighbor and knew that charity, done for the least of his flock, was charity done for Christ.
