Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke

6,1-5.

]While Jesus was going through a field of grain on a sabbath, his disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.
]Some Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is unlawful on the sabbath?"
]Jesus said to them in reply, "Have you not read what David did when he and those (who were) with him were hungry?
](How) he went into the house of God, took the bread of offering, which only the priests could lawfully eat, ate of it, and shared it with his companions."
]Then he said to them, "The Son of Man is lord of the sabbath."

St. Cloud(Priest (522-c.560))

SAINT CLOUDPriest(522- c. 560) St. Cloud is the first saint among the French royal family's princes. He was the son of Chlodomir, the king of Orleans, and the grandson of St. Clotilda. He was scarce three years old when his father was killed in Burgundy. St. Clotilda raised him and his two brothers in Paris. St. Cloud's ambitious uncles divided the kingdom of Orleans among them and killed his brothers. By divine providence, he escaped and was given sanctuary by the bishop of Rheims. His spiritual director was the hermit St. Severinus. He later renounced the world and withdrew to Provence. When his hermitage was discovered, he returned to Paris and received holy orders at the request of Parisians. He was ordained a priest in 551 by Bishop Eusebius of Paris. St. Cloud served villagers near Paris for several years. He built a church in western Paris dedicated to St. Martin of Tours. The sanctuary and the commune where it was built were named after him. He instructed and edified his countrymen until he passed away in 560. He is the patron saint of metal nail-makers and of the diocese of St. Cloud, Minnesota, USA.
