It’s nice that the feast of St. Euphrosynos falls right in the middle of apple season. We’re going apple picking with our homeschool co-op in a couple weeks, but every so often that trip coincides with this feast day. We love the simplicity of this humble boy’s life, proving that you don’t have to be a theologian or all that extraordinary to be sanctified.
