The Feast of St. John Nepomucene Neumann, C.S.S.R., Bishop
is today. There is information on him here.. As I have mentioned before, while he is a wonderful saint, and actually lived in my hometown of Pittsburgh for a while, the fact that people mispronounce his name and then mix him up with someone else drives me up the wall.
It is also the feast of St. Simeon Stylites, who seems to have invented a unique way of getting away from it all in order to pray. Apparently it worked, since he was subsequently copied by others....
