Habemus Papam! We welcome our new Holy Father Pope Leo XIV.
St. Nicholas, Patron Saint of Bakers and Brides and Children
Saint Nicholas of Myra is the man behind our modern-day Santa Claus. He was a Greek bishop, elected due to his piety and charity. Nicholas was certainly very charitable: he gave gifts of all sorts, especially at Christmastime. Nicholas preserved his flock from heresy, as well as spread the faith as a missionary. Saint Nicholas of Myra, a firm believer in charity, is one of the most popular saints in the world.
