Feast of St. Stanislaus May 8

 


St. Stanislaus became Bishop of Crakow, Poland in 1072AD. He got in trouble when he condemned the behavior of King Boleslaus the Bold, and backed it up by stopping Mass whenever the King showed up at the cathedral.

So Boleslaus the Bold killed Stanislaus - while he was saying Mass at a chapel outside of town.

Bold, indeed.
