Feast of St. Augustine, August 28
The original saint bad boy - he's the patron saint of brewers! St. Augustine said that as he made the change from pagan to Catholic he used to pray, "Give me chastity and continence, but not yet." Eventually he came around to the Truth (thanks to his mom, St. Monica) and was baptized into the Church by St. Ambrose. Doctor of the Church.
