In today's Office of Readings we encounter a reading from an Old Slavonic Life of Constantine. St Cyril was born in Thessalonica and was educated in Constantinople. With his brother St Methodius, Cyril went to Moravia to preach the faith. They translated liturgical texts into the Slavonic language and invented the Glagolithic and possibly also the Cyrillic alphabet. They were called back to Rome, where Cyril died on 14 February 869. They are known as the Apostles to the Slavs. For a reflection, "Build up your church and gather all into unity," please click on the image. Peace be with you!
