Pius X- Pope of the Blessed Sacrament

Published: August 20, 2021

A truly remarkable saint, who aimed to ‘restore all things in Christ.’‘ He insisted on separation of Church and State. He promoted liturgical reforms. He encouraged active participation by the laity and frequent reception of Holy Communion. He lowered the age for First Communion. He was a man well ahead of Vatican 11!
