The feast of the Martyrs of Uganda is not until June 3, but with all of the suffering and struggles we are enduring, I thought it a blessing to find these great intercessors who endured with great courage for the true faith. We must also encourage one another, and truly pray like never before, for the future of our Church and Her people. I say this as it is very painful to think of Fr. Cor.api unable to say a public Mass. We should think of him as he is like someone without children, no flock to feed but spiritually… He is truly in the desert with Christ, and so we should also follow, during this season of Lent. May God bless our suffering pr.iests and keep them hidden within His sacred wounds.

Martyrs of Uganda, pray for the faith where it is in danger and for Christians who must suffer because of their faith. Give them the same courage, zeal, and joy you showed. And help those of us who live in places where Christianity is accepted to remain aware of the persecution in other parts of the world. Amen
