St. Titus, a pagan, became a disciple of St. Paul. Titus labored hard, preaching with St. Paul on his missionary travels. Because of his extraordinary virtue, he was very close to the great Apostle. Paul sent Titus on many missions to the churches, to strengthen the faith and to bring peace when there were arguments among the Christians. It seemed that St. Titus had a special gift for bringing peace to troubled hearts. And this was another reason why he was dear to St. Paul. When he arrived among a group of Christians, the guilty had done, and accepted the punishment they deserved. After he finished his success and so bring him great happiness.
St. Paul made Titus Bishop of Crete and wrote a letter to him there. In it, he called him, “my beloved son.” St. Titus died at Crete.
Let us try to imitate this great saint by never quarreling with anyone and by trying to be peacemakers.
