Earlier this week was the feast day of St. Vincent. We learned today that St. Vincent is the patron saint of Winemakers.
A celebration for winemakers was held in a local church on St. Vincent's feast day. The notice for parishioners read,
"Most winemakers/distillers bring a bottle or two to the church to put into the Offertory Basket at the entrance. These donations will go up to the altar with the Offertory Procession. The bottles are shared with the clergy after Mass."
This sounds like a practice we should institute in our Church too!
