Memorial of Blessed Clemens August Graf von Galen

Today is the memorial of Blessed Clemens August Graf von Galen, a member of the Order of Malta.

As his motto, he chose the formula of the rite of episcopal consecration: "Nec laudibus, nec timore" (Neither praise nor threats will distance me from God).


A more complete bio of his life can be read here in a post from last year.
