September 16: ST. CYPRIAN OF CARTHAGE: From Darkness to Light

St. Cyprian of Carthage left behind a wealthy lawyer's life in his thirties — and faced execution decades later without a trace of fear. Baptized as a grown man after years he later called spiritual darkness, Cyprian became bishop of Carthage and poured his wealth and skill into caring for the poor. When persecution finally caught up with him, he refused to deny Christ and met his death sentence with total peace. "Thanks be to God." Want to keep living Cyprian's story after the episode ends?
