Titus 3:4-8
Timothy and Titus

Today is the day to honor Timothy and Titus, companions of St. Paul. Two letters in the New Testament are addressed to Timothy and one to Titus. They are commended as fellow workers, faithful servants, and defenders of the faith.

Paul trained many believers just like Timothy and Titus to carry on the work of the Lord. Even today, the church calls on believers, all the companions of the Cross, to be faithful workers, servants, and defenders of the faith.

Here is a prayer in honor of Timothy and Titus:

Just and merciful God, in every generation you raise up prophets, teachers and witnesses to summon the world to honor and praise your holy Name: We thank you for sending Timothy and Titus, whose gifts built up your Church by the power of the Holy Spirit. Grant that we too may be living stones built upon the foundation of Jesus Christ our Savior; who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
