Saint of the Day

April 23

St. George

Saint George is the ob-

ject of a vast amount of

imagination. There is

every reason to believe that he was a real

martyr who suffered at Lydda in Pales-

tine, probably before the time of Constan-

tine. The Church adheres to his memory,

but not to the legends surrounding his

life. That he was willing to pay the su-

preme price to follow Christ is what the

Church believes. And it is enough. The

story of George’s slaying the dragon, res-

cuing the king’s daughter, and converting

Libya is a 12th-century Italian fable.

George was a favorite patron saint of cru-

saders, as well as of Eastern soldiers in

earlier times. He is a patron saint of Eng-

land, Portugal, Germany, Aragon, Catalo-

nia, Boy Scouts, Genoa, and Venice.

Reflection

Human nature seems to crave more

than cold historical data. Americans

have Washington and Lincoln, but we

somehow need Paul Bunyan, too. The

life of Saint Francis of Assisi is inspir-

ing enough, but for centuries the Ital-

ians have found his spirit in the leg-

ends of the Fioretti, too. Santa Claus is

the popular extension of the spirit of

Saint Nicholas. The legends about

Saint George are part of this yearning.

Both fact and legend are human ways

of illumining the mysterious truth

about the One who alone is holy.
