February 20th
St Sadoth (d. 342), Bishop, Martyr; Seleucia, Persia

"I saw in my sleep, a ladder environed with light and reaching from earth to the heavens.  St. Simeon was at the top of it, and in great glory.  He beheld me at the bottom, and said to me, with a smiling countenance: "Mount up, Sadoth, fear not.  I mounted yesterday, and it is your turn today:' which means, that as he was slain last year, so I am to follow him this."

Bl Francisco Marto (1908-1919), Fatima Visionary; Aljustrel, Portugal

"How beautiful God is!  How beautiful!  But He is sad because of the sins of men.  I want to console Him; I want to suffer for love of Him."
