Quote:
The entire population of the city stood from dawn to dusk, waiting for the decision of the holy council. When they heard that the wretched man was deposed, they all began to cry out with one voice in praise of the holy council, glorifying God because the enemy of the faith had fallen. When we came out of the church, they made a procession ahead of us to the lodging house, for it was getting dark by this time, and even the women came out with incense to perfume the path before us. ~Letter of Saint Cyril, describing the Council of Ephesus, 431
Prayer:
Saint Cyril, you were courageous, firm, and exact in your fidelity to the truth. You placed your gifts at the service of Christ and His Church, and edified the faith of the people of God. Please pray for me, that I will always remain steadfast in my fidelity to the truth, even to the minutest degree, so that I will more fully know and love our Lord, His Blessed Mother, and our one, holy, catholic, and apostolic faith. Saint Cyril of Alexandria, pray for me. Jesus, I trust in You.
