• Father Dominic founded a 13th century order, which combated the Albigensian heresy.  Albigensians/Cathars were the latest incarnation of a dualistic heresy (Much earlier, Augustine of Hippo was taken with the Manichean/dualist heresy.). As per this heresy, God is NOT all powerful and is perpetually at war with an equally powerful bad god. In their convoluted thinking, the body is bad.  They fail to recognize the significance of the "resurrection of the body"; that God wants our bodies and souls in Heaven!  Dominic's memorial is August 8.
• Lawrence was a 3rd century, 33year old Roman deacon. Ordered to gather up & surrender the Church's treasure, he gathered impoverished peoples for whom the Church was caring (No government safety net.).  "Here's the Church's treasure," he announced.  The powers that be (or that were) were not amused and decided on a slow death for Lawrence.  While being roasted on an open fire, Lawrence told his torturers: "You can turn me over, I am done on this side."  Lawrence is remembered as the patron saint of chefs and comedians.  His feast day is August 10.

• "Truly, You are the Son of God" (8/13/23)
