One of the first bishops of the Church, Saint Clement of Rome was arrested and sentenced to hard labor in a stone quarry for not acknowledging the Roman gods. While praying for his fellow-prisoners, who were parched from thirst and exhaustion, a vision of the Lamb of God directed him to a nearby hillside. When Clement dug into the ground with his pickaxe, water gushed forth!  

The miraculous legend of Saint Clement of Rome, retold by award-winning author Pamela Love, testifies to the power of faith-filled prayer, calm perseverance through hardship, and selfless love for others. The next time your children hear Saint Clement's name during the first Eucharistic prayer at Mass, they will know more about the saint who is praying for them!
