Fr. Johann Dzierzon

Catholic Priest & scientist who is considered to be the father of modern Apiology and Apiculture

• Came from a Polish family in Silesia.

• Trained in theology, he combined his theoretical and practical work in apiculture with his duties as a Roman Catholic priest.

• He was a pioneering Polish apiarist who discovered the phenomenon of parthenogenesis in bees.

• His discoveries and innovations made him world famous in scientific and bee-keeping circles, and has been described as the "father of modern apiculture."

• He studied the social life of honeybees and constructed several experimental beehives.

• In 1838, he devised the first practical movable-comb beehive, which allowed manipulation of individual combs without destroying the structure of the hive. And in 1835, he discovered that the drones are produced from unfertilized eggs and caused a revolution in bee cross-breeding. And in 1854, he discovered the mechanism of secretion of the royal jelly and its role in the development of queens.

In the Darkest Times, Pray

Matthew 8:23-27

During the storm, Jesus' disciples cried out to their Master in desperation: "Lord, save us! We are perishing!" This is a de profundis prayer. It comes from Psalm 130: "Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord. Lord, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications!" It is the prayer offered at the darkest times of life, when we feel utterly incapable of helping ourselves.

Perhaps you yourself are in this precise situation. Perhaps your life is sinking, or you're recovering from serious injury or emotional pain, or you've just received some devastating news. Perhaps you find yourself caught in a terrible, unrelenting depression. Maybe you've just lost a loved one, and you're awash in a sea of grief.

If that's you, then pray as the disciples did. Awaken someone who can help. Jesus sleeping in the midst of the storm is a very powerful symbol of God's sovereignty over even the darkest and most difficult trials that life throws at us.
