Saint John the Baptist is the Patron Saint of: Baptism

June 24th is the celebration of the Solemnity of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist.

John the Baptist was born to Zachariah and Elizabeth, through the intercession of God, who was otherwise too old to bear children.

Nursing caries, or tooth decay, can be caused when your child sleeps with a bottle. This condition is also called baby bottle tooth decay. It is caused when a child goes to bed with a bottle filled with milk or juice, anything except water.

Nursing bottle caries usually affects children between the ages of 1 and 2. If your infant falls asleep while breast feeding, he is also at risk.

Bottle tooth decay develops when baby teeth come into frequent contact with too much sugar. Bacteria in the mouth feed on the sugar, multiply, and produce acid as a waste product. The acid attacks the teeth and tooth enamel, resulting in tooth decay.

Sun dazzles at its pinnacle,
Summer breeze surges through trees,
Vegetation in full bloom,
Is frequented by bumblebees.

The Earth basking in sunlight,
Yearns for a lashing shower,
The enchilada of a season,
Monsoon shall eventually conquer. Read more
