SAINT OF TODAY The Church celebrates the feast of these two apostles of Jesus on the same day. St. Simon was called the zealous one because he had so much devotion to the Jewish law. Once he was called by Jesus to be an apostle, he gave his heart and his energy to preaching the Gospel. With the other apostles, he received the Holy Spirit on the first Pentecost. He first went to Egypt to spread the good news. Then he went to Persia with the apostle St. Jude. Both of them gave their lives for God when they were martyred there. St. Jude is sometimes called Thaddeus, which means the brave one. catholicculture.org/culture/liturgicalyear/calendar/day.cfm?date=2013-10-28
