January 25, A Special Day for Writers



Today is a special day. It is the feast day of Saint Francis De Sales, patron saint of Journalists and Writers. St. Francis himself was a great writer, along with scholar, and holy man of God. His many books and quotes are filled with inspiring words to reflect on and live by. He is also a Doctor of the Church.
Pray for us, St. Francis De Sales, that as writers we may write well, and for the glory of God!

    Hello Melissa,

    This is my favorite idea from St. Francis de Sales: "Nothing is so strong as gentleness. Nothing so gentle as real strength."
