St. John Paul II in his Apostolic Letter “Tertio Millennio Adveniente” wrote
“At the end of the second millennium the Church had once again become a Church of Martyrs and this witness must not be forgotten.”
With this profound quote in mind, Carol Pinard’s goal was to make known the stories of the Martyrs and Witnesses of the 20th century… some known to us, but many are not. The presentation is an account of the heroism, courage and steadfast faithfulness of ordinary men and women who were willing to pay an enormous price for Christ and His Church.
Carol will share the Genesis of this presentation along with stories of these Martyrs and Witnesses at St. Jude’s Parish after all the Masses on the weekend of April 2nd and 3rd. St. Jude’s Mass schedule is Saturday 4 p.m. and Sunday 7:30, 9:30 and 11:30 a.m. On display will be relics, letters, memorabilia collected from these martyrs from all over the world. You may have heard about some of these… many you will hear about for the first time.
