He is commemorated together with Bishop Maximus of Jerusalem on May 5. The Carmelite tradition teaches that he was a Palestinian and entered with his brother in the <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/%C3%81ngel_de_Sicilia\">Carmelo de Santa Ana<\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omnesmag.com\/en\/focus\/saint-cyril-of-jerusalem-bishop-doctor-of-the-church\/\">Jerusalem<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same tradition, which can be consulted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmelitas.es\/rincon-carmelita\/leyenda-e-historia-encuentro-de-san-angel-de-sicilia-san-francisco-de-asis-y-santo-domingo-de-guzman\">here<\/a>The story of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Dominic of Guzman in St. John Lateran on a trip to Rome is told. In this meeting St. Angel predicts the wounds to St. Francis, and the latter, in turn, announces his martyrdom. Through his intercession the confirmation of the Rule was obtained by Pope Honorius III in 1226.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Towards the middle of the thirteenth century he was mortally wounded in Lycata, because of the aggression made against him by a great man of the city, denounced by St. Angelo for his lack of ethics. In the place where he died a church was built, and his tomb was very soon <a href=\"https:\/\/www.es.catholic.net\/op\/articulos\/35026\/angel-de-jerusaln-de-sicilia-santo.html\">pilgrimage site<\/a>. The Carmelite Order has venerated St. Angelo as a saint since at least 1456. In 1459, Pope Pius II approved his cult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Saint Maximus and other Saints and Blesseds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The liturgy also celebrates on May 5 St. Maximus of Jerusalem, \"repeatedly tortured\", says the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.franciscanos.org\/agnofranciscano\/m05\/dia0505.html\">Franciscan Directory<\/a>in the time of Emperor Maximinus Daya. As a result of the Constantinian peace he was freed and elected bishop of Jerusalem, where he died in 350. Also blessed Bienvenido Mareri of Recanati, Nunzio Sulprizio and Catalina Cittadini. The latter promoted the congregation of Ursuline Sisters of Somasca for the education and formation of girls and young women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today's saints include the Germanic bishops St. Gotthard and St. Briton, St. Hilary of Arles, and the Polish Blessed Gregory Frackowiak. This young brother of the Divine Word Missionaries was guillotined in Dresden by the Nazis in 1943, after giving catechesis and secretly bringing Communion to the sick.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San \u00c1ngel de Jerusal\u00e9n se encuentra entre los primeros Carmelitas que vinieron del Monte Carmelo a Sicilia.
