Saint Ignatius of Antioch | October 17, 2025

Today, the second Bishop of Antioch, Syria, this disciple of the beloved Disciple John was consecrated Bishop around the year 69 by the Apostle Peter, the first Pope. A holy man who was deeply loved by the Christian faithful, he always made it his special care to defend “orthodoxy” (right teaching) and “orthopraxy” (right practice) among the early Christians.

In 107, during the reign of the brutal Emperor Trajan, this holy Bishop was wrongfully sentenced to death because he refused to renounce the Christian faith. He was taken under guard to Rome where he was to be brutally devoured by wild beasts in a public spectacle. During his journey, his travels took him through Asia Minor and Greece. He made good use of the time by writing seven letters of encouragement, instruction and inspiration to the Christians in those communities. We still have these letters as a great treasure of the Church today.

It was Bishop Ignatius who first used the term “catholic” to describe the whole Church. These letters connect us to the early Church and the unbroken, clear teaching of the Apostles which was given to them directly by Jesus Christ. They also reveal the holiness of a man of God who became himself a living letter of Christ. The shedding his blood in the witness of holy martyrdom was the culmination of a life lived conformed to Jesus Christ. Ignatius sought to offer himself, in Christ, for the sake of the Church which he loved.

Bishop Ignatius was not afraid of death. He knew that it had been defeated by the Master. He followed the Lord Jesus into his Passion, knowing that he would rise with Him in his Resurrection. He wrote to the disciples in Rome: "Permit me to imitate my suffering God ... I am God's wheat and I shall be ground by the teeth of beasts, that I may become the pure bread of Christ.”

He died a Martyrs' death in Rome, devoured by two lions in one of the cruel demonstrations of Roman excess and animosity toward the true faith.

OFFICIAL! Pope Leo XIV will visit Turkey and Lebanon in the first apostolic journey of his pontificate, to take place from November 27 to December 2, the Vatican announced Tuesday.

During the six-day papal trip, The Holy Father will visit the Turkish city of Iznek to mark the 1,700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, an ecumenical milestone in Church history which led to the formulation of the Nicene Creed.

Leo will be the fifth pope to visit Turkey. Early in his pontificate, Pope Francis visited the Middle Eastern nation in 2014 to strengthen the Church’s interreligious dialogue with Orthodox and Muslim leaders.

The last papal visit to Lebanon was made by Pope Benedict XVI from Sept. 14-16, 2012, more than one year after the outbreak of the Syrian civil war.

According to a 2024 UNHCR report, Lebanon hosts the largest number of refugees per capita and per square kilometre in the world, including approximately 1.5 million Syrian refugees.

This story is developing.

Pope Leo XIV offers us a special invitation:
“Dear brothers and sisters, the month of October, now near, in the Church is particularly dedicated to the Holy Rosary. That is why I invite everyone, each day of the coming month, to pray the Rosary for peace—personally, with your family, and in community.”

Let us unite together as children of God and of the Catholic Church to pray for peace—from our homes, in our parishes, wherever we may be.
