Saint James the Greater other image

Saint James the Greater, Apostle at the Bulusan  fiesta vesperas procession, July 24, 2013.

"He was chosen by Jesus to be one of the twelve apostles, given the mission to proclaim the good news, and authority to heal and cast out demons. To be named one of the twelve James must have had faith and commitment.

But even among the apostles he held a special place. WhenJesus raised Jairus' daughter when all thought her dead, he only allowed James, John, and Peter to come with him. Even more important when he went up to the mountain to pray, he wanted James, John, and Peter to go with him. And it was there on the mountain they were privileged to witness what no one else had seen -- Jesus transfigured in his glory, speaking to Moses and Elijah, as the voice of God spoke from a cloud.

And with Simon Peter, James and John were the only ones of the apostles that Jesus gave a special name: Sons of Thunder." Source: http://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=59                             

Note: The image of Saint James the Greater Apostle ( above photo) is presently under the care of Dr. Oscar Halum and family of Bulusan, Sorsogon.
