"It is the saints who change the world for the better, they transform it in a lasting way, injecting in it energies that only love inspired by the Gospel can arouse. The saints are the great benefactors of humanity!" Pope Benedict XVI

Day 333 -- Saint Aspren of Naples
Today we remember a saint from my family's hometown...Saint Aspren of Naples. He was a convert to Catholicism and brought to the faith by Saint Candida the Elder. He also knew Saint Peter the Apostle. He was the first bishop of Naples and is the patron of Naples. My family has been watching some old home videos, and I can't wait to see one of Nana...from Naples and one of the best bakers I remember.
