St. Erasmus, ‘Dauntless Bishop and Martyr’

Mathias Grünewald, “Meeting of St. Erasmus and St. Maurice,” ca. 1522

“Grant us through the intercession of thy dauntless bishop and martyr Erasmus, who so valiantly confessed the Faith, that we may learn the doctrine of this faith, practice its precepts and thereby be made worthy to attain its promises. Amen.” —Prayer to St. Erasmus
