ST ZACHARY AND ST ELIZABETH - FEASTDAY 5TH NOVEMBER


Little is known about either saint, with the exception that they were of advanced age upon conceiving and bearing the cousin of Jesus, the Forerunner of the Son of Justice, Saint John the Baptist. Though all we know of them is recorded in the Gospel of Luke (chapter 1), detailing Our Blessed Mother’s visitation to her kinswoman, Elizabeth, given the honour bestowed upon them by the Lord we can be certain of their piety, strength of character and love.
