* Wednesday of the 25th Week in Ordinary Time * Saint of the Day: St. Rupert of Salzberg; he was bishop of Worms in the Seventh Century when he was called to evangelize Bavaria; Duke Theodo II gave him land, on which he established the Abbey of St. Peter and the Nonnburg Convent; he converted pagan temples into Christian churches, and established the salt-mining industry, from which the city of Salzberg gets its name; when Rupert died in about 710, he was buried in St. Peter's Abbey, but his relics were later translated to the Cathedral at Salzberg * Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 9/24/25 * Gospel: Luke 9:1-6
