Description

Through the centuries, Christians have endured times of persecution, torture, and even death for daring to take a stand for their beliefs. These individuals were martyrs for the cause of Christ and have become an important part of our Christians heritage.

First Sentence

CHRIST our Savior, in the Gospel of St. Matthew, hearing the con of Simon Peter, who, first of all other, openly acknowledged Him to be the Son of God, and perceiving the secret hand of His Father therein, called him (alluding to his name) a rock, upon which rock He would build His Church so strong that the gates of hell should not prevail against it.
