10 Nov: Leo the Great
In the newer Roman calendar this is the feast of Pope Saint Leo I, “the Great” (+461). In the older, traditional calendar, his feast is 11 April.
You could perhaps pray to St. Leo that he will intercede with God to ask strength and courage for his successor in this difficult time.
I have quite a few PODCAzTs dealing with him and his texts. I notice that all of them are from some time ago. Come to think of it, I haven’t made a PODCAzT for a long time, have I?
