Today is the feast of St. Ephrem the Syrian, my patron.
Here is what some folks are saying:
- The Ignatius Press blog quotes the Holy Father's Wednesday Catechesis on St. Ephrem from Nov. 28, 2007
- The Catholic News Agency offers a brief biography
- Catholic Exchange says, "His unique and effective approach involved writing hymns against the heretics of the day; he would take popular songs of such groups and, using their melodies, compose very beautiful hymns expressing true doctrine."
- And here is a very nice reflection by abitadeacon
