Saint Nicholas
July 11, 2011
This blog will talk about St.Nick or Santa Claus. Maybe some of you dont know this but St.Nick was real. He was a very Giving Saint. St.Nick had a very rich family,But then his Parents died while he was still young. Obeying Jesus' word he selled all he had to the poor.He did every thing he could to help the needy.When he saw a Poor family that owed a lot of money to the Roman empire He helped him out by Secretly sliding Gold coins down his Chimney! They could finally pay the Roman Empire back thus started St.Nick's giving streak. After He we was made Bishop of Myra now known as Turkey (back then Controlled by the Roman empire) he still kept giving and giving! Making gifts for the children and helping families in need. The Emperor Started getting sick of St.Nick's good deeds and his way of talking,most of all he didn't like how he spread the Word of God by relating to the people. so he arrested a bunch of Christians and Set there Church on fire! (Since there weren't Many Christians there that was probably the only Christian Church for that period) Then he arrested Bishop Nick! He was Arrested for Many Many years. After the Prisons being so filled with Christians believers and Priests they were all let go,but St.Nicholas was already very advanced in his years. After he was let Go he even gave food to the men that arrested him! He did More Christmas Masses,and died very happily. Lets pray that we may live a life like St.Nick and ask him to pray for us to the Lord our God,and let us glorify God for giving us such a Charitable Saint.
