Cecilia-patroness of music

The story of St Cecilia is very captivating. Beloved St Cecilia, virgin and martyr believed to gave up her life in third century. It is said that Cecilia 'sang to God in her heart ' on her wedding day, desiring to live for Christ alone.With the help of an angel, cecilia converted her husband and both died as martyrs. She is known to be patron of musicians. In art , she is portrayed as she is playing organ, or lyre.

        
 ''Let me sing to the Lord for His goodness to me'' Psalms 12:7

A line from fifteenth century story of Saint Cecilia explains how she became the Western patron of music .
She loved everyone no matter whether they are poor or rich and helped anyone in need and knew that all are children of God. 

After daily reading of the story of Cecilia, thought of making blondies which was of first time.Geo was helping along with Theresu.Then once it was made it was decorated with some chocolates for indicating piano keys.It was a blessed day in our family, we had a visit from one of the famous musician from India, who wrote many christian music




Brownies ended up some cracks but tasted good..

St Cecilia Pray for us.
