Many many thanks to all those who contributed to match a generous $3000 donation from an anonymous donor. The goal was attained this past weekend. It is because of people like you that the Mystagogy Resource Center can continue to offer unique material to all for free on a daily basis that I hope people find beneficial. For those who still wish to contribute, please do so, with much gratitude in return. God bless you all!

Venerable Gratos

Venerable Gratos (Feast Day - December 5)

Verses

Living like an Angel brought forth hope,
But dying as a man Gratos reproved.

Venerable Gratos met his end in peace.

We have no further information about him, but some manuscripts say he was a Bishop of Ephesus, with Venerable Nonnos, who is also commemorated today.
