Church of SS. Cosmas and Damian St. Bruno Priest
|
| History: Saint Bruno was born at
Cologne about the year 1035. He was educated at Paris and, after ordination
to the priesthood, he taught theology. However, he desired a solitary life
and to this end he founded the first Carthusian monastery. When called upon
by Pope Urban II, he aided the pontiff in meeting the needs of the Church.
He died at Squillace in Calabria in 1101. His feast is celebrated on
October 6th. Prayer: Father, you called Saint Bruno to serve you in solitude. In answer to his prayers help us to remain faithful to you amid the changes of this world.We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
