COURAGEOUS FAMILY OF MARTYRS




On this Feast of Christ the King, I think this is an appropriate video to post. I hope it will be an inspiration to all of us to "Keep the Faith".

    Sr Ann Marie & Daily Grace
    Thank you both for your comments. It is indeed incredible faith! When I first watched this video, I was struck by the fact that the martyrdom of these heroic women took place in 1936. St David Lewis and the other martyrs I am mainly dealing with are from the 16th & 17th centuries! Compared to that, 1936 seems so close to our time! It makes one wonder if we have advanced at all in that 300 years.

    God bless you both. I hope you will look in again.

    Thank you for posting this video.

    There's a saying you may have heard: If Christianity was made illegal, is there enough evidence to convict you of being a Christian?

    I find this a sobering thought sometimes, when I consider my actions.

    God bless you.

    Good morning Victor
    Thank you for your comments. You are so right. We Chriatians can sometimes be very lacking in Christianity. Under the Protestant Monarchs of England, Catholics were persecuted. Under Catholic Queen Mary, Protestants were persecuted. Under the Commonwealth, Catholics and Anglicans were persecuted! Let's hope AND PRAY that we learn from it! God bless you, Victor.
