Saint Jerome

September 30

Saints Who Were Great Evangelizers

St. Jerome – A Fourth Century Doctor of the Church, Jerome made the Bible more accessible to everyday people when he translated it into Latin from its original Hebrew and Greek. St. Jerome is famous for saying, “Ignorance of the Scriptures is ignorance of Christ.” We can follow in Jerome’s evangelizing footsteps by loving the Word of God.

Saint Jerome, Priest and Doctor of the Church Jb 38:1, 12-21; 40:3-5/Lk 10:13-16 (459).
