Homily for the 34th Monday in Ordinary Time

The story of St. Cecilia is not without beauty or merit. St. Cecilia, patron saint of musicians, spent her time preaching and in her lifetime was able to convert over four hundred people, most of whom were baptized by Pope Urban. Cecilia was later arrested and condemned to death. Cecilia was buried in the catacomb of St. Callistus, near Rome.
