SAINT OF THE DAY MAY 26 ST. PHILIP NERI, PRIEST, FOUNDER OF THE CONGREGATION OF THE ORATORY Philip was born in Florence but reborn, for the Romans, in the squares and alleys of the Eternal City, the most run-down of them, in and through which a holy shepherd acquired the “smell of the sheep” - sheep, who had the stench of poverty, which empties both the pockets and the soul. ST. ELEUTERUS, POPE
