Calm waves roll into São Martinho do Porto — a village in Portugal with a shell-shape bay surrounded by a sand beach. The bay formed when a strip of land along the coast was eroded and then divided by the Atlantic Ocean. Because the opening to the ocean is still relatively small (825 feet or 250 meters), the waves that roll into the beach are almost always calm.

«Celebrated Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos creates vibrant, often monumental sculpture, using fabric, needlework and crochet alongside everyday objects from saucepans to wheel hubs. She frequently uses items associated with domestic work and craft to comment from a feminist perspective on national and collective identity, cultural tradition and women’s roles in society.»

For every ton of cork produced, the cork oak forest absorbs 70 tons of CO2 from the atmosphere! Mind boggling, but true. How this possible? Cork trees are remarkable carbon sinks. They're big trees that suck large amounts of CO2 out of the atmosphere to live. When cork is harvested from the bark of the trees, instead of cutting them down and ending their CO2 consumption, the trees continue living. What's more, the trees must now work to grow back their bark. This means they must absorb up to five times MORE CO2 once their bark has been harvested!

Saint Vincent celebrated today - Lisbon's patron Saint. 🙏

Today is the Feast Day of Spiritual Warrior Saint Vincent of Saragossa ✝️ Pray for us

Vincent, the first martyr of Spain, was a deacon in the 3rd century. Together with his Bishop, Valerius of Saragossa, he was apprehended during a persecution of Dacian the governor of Spain.

Valerius was banished but Vincent was subjected to fierce tortures. St. Austin assures us, that he suffered torments far beyond what any man could possibly have endured, unless supported by a supernatural strength, and that he preserved such a peace and tranquillity in his words, countenance, and gestures in the midst of the tortures.

According to details of his death, Vincent was stretched on a rack by his hands and feet, drawn by cords and pulleys, until his joints were almost torn asunder, his flesh was torn with iron hooks, he was bound upon a red-hot gridiron and roasted. Through all of these torments, he suffered with joy in his countenance, and seemed every moment to acquire new strength and resolution. He lay unmoved, his eyes turned towards heaven, his mind calm, and his heart fixed on God in continual prayer.

At last, he was thrown into a dungeon and his wounded body laid on the floor strewed with broken pottery, which opened afresh his ghastly wounds, and cut what little flesh he still had. His legs were set in wooden stocks, stretched very wide, and strict orders were given that he should be left without provisions.

But God sent his angels to comfort him, with whom he sung the praises of his protector. The jailer observing through the chinks the prison filled with light, and the saint walking and praising God, was converted upon the spot to the Christian faith, and afterwards baptized.

The faithful were then permitted to see him, and coming in troops, wiped and kissed his wounds. After this a soft bed was prepared for him, on which he was no sooner laid but he expired, the happy moment he had not ceased to pray for ever since his torments, and his first call to martyrdom.
