St. Phoebe is in the
House!
St. Paul introduces us to St. Phoebe, whom he entrusted to deliver, read, and interpret his letter to the Romans. This September we celebrate St. Phoebe and pray for her intercession for the upcoming gathering of the Synod of Bishops in Rome as they discern how the Holy Spirit is inviting the church to grow.
