My Quiet Life in Suffolk: St. Luke’s Day

 It has been an age since I wrote a put up a couple of Saint from my ebook of Saints Days.

October the 18th is St Luke’s Day and within the books of climate sayings they all the time point out St. Luke’s Little Summer time. This can be a spell of hotter, dry days that always happen round this time.

I discovered the image beneath on Wiki, it’s from a stained glass window at St Mary and St Lambert, Stonham Aspal and added to wiki by Kevin Wailes (who lived within the village)  

Under is the illustration from the  October 18th web page of the Calendar Of Saints ebook. The outline says mosaic in S.Vitale, Ravenna.

St Luke is the patron saint of physicians and artists and wrote his personal gospel and the Acts of the Apostles. He’s thought to have been a health care provider and went with St Paul on one in all his missionary journeys.

He may need been a Greek Physician from Antioch or an Hellenic Jew (combining Judaism with Greek Tradition).

Luke’s gospel has some tales from the lifetime of Jesus that do not seem within the different gospels though it is identified that he did not witness the work of Jesus himself. In trendy instances Luke’s talent as an historian is questioned.

It is thought he lived till aged 80+ earlier than dying in Greece.
