Pope Saint Gelasius I

Pope of African descent who defended the Church's freedom and was known for his great charity to the poor.

Who was Pope Saint Gelasius I?

Gelasius was born in Rome of African heritage and served as pope from 492 to 496, after working closely with his predecessor Felix III. In a famous letter to the Emperor Anastasius he explained that the world is guided by two powers, the authority of bishops and the power of rulers, and that the Church must be free in spiritual matters. He worked hard to heal divisions, fought the Pelagian heresy and opposed the pagan Lupercalia festival in Rome. Though strict in doctrine, he was so generous that he was remembered as "a lover of the poor."

Feast day and traditions

Many prayers in an ancient Roman book of Masses, the Gelasian Sacramentary, were traditionally linked to his name. He is one of three early popes of African origin, with Saints Victor I and Miltiades.

Prayer

Saint Gelasius, shepherd of the Church, pray for the Pope and for all leaders, that they may serve with wisdom, justice and love for the poor. Amen.

Novena

To pray a novena that ends on the eve of the feast, begin on November 12 and finish on November 20.

Mass readings

Read the Mass readings for November 21 from the US bishops (USCCB).
