Luke, Evangelist.
Feast Day 18th October.
He lived in the first century, possibly a Greek from Antioch, who was
trained as a doctor (he is refered to by Saint Paul as 'our beloved
physician'). He was a gentile and a Christian convert and a disciple of
Saint Paul. He wrote a Gospel and the Acts of the Apostles. Tradition
suggests that he may have had direct contact with Mary, Mother of
Jesus, he certainly had time and opportunity to meet those who knew
Jesus personally.
His Gospel, written from the perspective of a non-Jew, emphasises that
it is a 'Universal Gospel' because Jesus died for the salvation of all.
It has also been called the 'Gospel of Mercy' for its references to
Jesus' compassion & care for the sick, the marginalised and sinners.
Your friends, O Lord, shall make known the glorious splendour of your reign Ps144: v12 Psalm from the Mass on the Feast of St Luke.
