St. Pius X | Feast Day August 21

Born in 1835 in Venice, Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto was pope from 1903 to 1914 as Pius X. He was a staunch defender of the truth, a liturgical reformer, and a man of great faith.

“Without any doubt there is a desire in all hearts for peace. But how foolish is he who seeks this peace apart from God; for if God be driven out, justice is banished, and once justice fails, all hope of peace is lost.”

— St. Pius x
