February 3: St. Blaise
#KnowYourSaint: St. Blaise, Latin Blasius, was an early Christian bishop and martyr, one of the most popular medieval saints. He is venerated as the patron saint of sufferers from throat diseases and of wool combers and as one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers.
Blaise lived in a cave on Mount Argaeus and was known as a healer of men and animals. When Agricola came to Sebaste to persecute Christians and while searching for wild animals for the arena games, they discovered Blaise deep in prayer. He was arrested, told to recant his faith and was thrown in prison. While in prison, Blaise ministered to and healed fellow prisoners, including saving a child who was choking on a fish bone; this led to the blessing of throats on Blaise's feast day. They threw him into a lake but Blaise stood on the surface and invited them to walk out and prove the power of their gods; they drowned. When he returned to land, he was martyred by being beaten, his flesh torn with wool combs, and then beheading.
St. Blaise, Pray for us.
