Oh! St. Caecilia! I was in the monastry for a week at her Church that was her home! And: she is not corrupted! In the 16th century they exhumed her body and she was incorrupted! Then they made a statue of her!

[@ginagrant4802]

You're so blessed to have visited her home. I wish I too could afford to do that.

[@BarbaraMarieLouise]

@@ginagrant4802 yes, but it’s not so expensive! The sister are very friendly and I could stay there for the week. And they host students as well. And they have Gregorianic Schola. So it’s very good!

[@granmabern5283]

Thankyou ❤

[@kathleenross5181]

I visited the monastery and shrine there in 2005. There was such a powerful feeling of peace, a very high, beautiful vibration. How fortunate you were to spend time there. I’ve never gotten back, but I’ve never forgotten it! GBU. 🙏

[@AntoinettePalermo-xs6it]

Thank you, from the woman of Guadalupe.

[@CatholicChar]

What a great story of a great saint! Happy feast day, St. Cecilia!

[@marinavargas5343]

Thank you for this beautiful story of St. Cecilia’s life and martyrdom. I chose St. Cecilia as my confirmation saint 42 years ago. She is an incredible inspiration for Catholics today. St. Cecilia pray for our Church and all Catholics throughout the world that we may have your strength and love of God. Amen.

[@R.I.S.E.]

Beautiful story. Beautiful story telling.

[@littleservant4134]

whenever the dog hears these words... GOD BLESS YOU... it always wags his tail and comes to matthew ...

[@MollyLanthier-oy5nb]

I got confirmed today as Cecilia! Such a wonderful woman with a gorgeous story. Such a great reminder to praise gods with our voices and words 💕

[@bethanyubelhor8733]

My confirmation name Saint. Let us all lift up our voices in Praise to God. His Mercy is endures forever. Pray for the Church, the Pope, and all the poor souls in Purgatory.

[@christinehenley9017]

She is mine also yet I've never heard this version of her life and martyrdom. The one I learned during Confirmation was very dark. I chose her because of her love of music. Now, I see her life and consecration to Christ in such a more positive light! 🙏

[@elizabeth_whyte.artist]

My confirmation name too 🙏❤️🤍

[@Nonyer813]

My daughter Cecilia especially enjoyed this! Thank you Matthew!

[@ceciliamiller6862]

Thank you for this beautiful episode, Matthew, perfect for St Cecilia’s feast day! It was so good to hear the story of her life and martyrdom as told by the great St John Bosco to his oratory boys- and was very edifying with all the images and music that you included- it’s a treasure for me! Hail bright Cecilia!

[@dennisthankaraj3015]

I love St. Caecilia, her soul delivering my family from evil thoughts. Thank you God my heart ever pray for her wonderful works.

[@celiahart1239]

My beloved Patron Saint! Music has been a major part of my life and my family's. I am honored that I was named after her. She is an outstanding role model for me and others. May God bless her and us thru her prayers.

[@monicadabney8471]

Thank you so much Matthew. Happy St. Augustine & Texas landing of Catholic Spain for the Glory of God & honor of the Mother of God. 🌹

[@lukepaul4936]

Please know your Baptismal day, think what happened, the price paid, the innocence gained and perhaps then lost. I have been drawn back but oh how I mourn the splendor of baptism five days after my birth but was never told of this heavenly purification - so many do not know they are bound by its deepest promises!

[@patrick.7326]

I wonder if St.Paul's book read by valerian was a part of the Apostles creed as the Church grew?

[@wallsign4575]

We are created in the image of the Holy Trinity (see Genesis 1:26). Essence of people: Mind + body + soul = 3 distinct parts. Existence of people: Human x living x being = 1 person. Essence of God: Father + Son + Holy Ghost = 3 Persons. Existence of God: All-knowing x all-powerful x ever-present = 1 God. Please pray 🙏🏽 I get my manuscript “The Fingerprints and Signature of God” published.

[@paulyosef7550]

😇

[@AdamS-io3sx]

Saint Cecilia was a monotheism . Since she was born in 200AD and the council of niacia was in 325 AD Which the beginning of Trinity by voting "world resetting!" . How will God punish the wicked in the same time Jesus Christ was killed for humanity's sin ?!!! and so many questions. The Holy Quran has mentioned beloved Jesus and Mary so many times in away to correct the believe from Trinity to monotheism " the original message of Jesus " . Peace and love to all everyone 💚 🙏

[@robintropper660]

But how does that make her the patron saint of poetry, music and instrument makers?

[@donnahalsted7718]

It is said she suffered and died with a song in her heart.

[@bear8smylene]

​@@donnahalsted7718but dont all saints HAVE SONGS IN THEIR HEARTS IN THEIR DYING MOMENTS? THEY are so happy during that time.

[@bear8smylene]

U made me think when i saw ur comment. But maybe she loved to sing (the prayers or bible verses no less) while playing the organ. Which means she is so in love with God. And that made her the patron of music

[@bear8smylene]

Thrice beheaded?whoa! LOVE THIS POST! Love the narration! and she lay on her right side with her fingers in that position😮 very unique saint she is. ST CECILIA pray for us!🙏🏻

[@donnahalsted7718]

@@bear8smylene I'm most certain they do! But we have patron saints for just about everything under the sun. So I guess the Church picks patrons for what they do best. We could compare it to a corporation who hires people with certain talents for certain positions. So Cecilia gets to be the patron Saint for music. I can just see my music director of twelve years in heaven giving Cecilia some pointers!
