As we celebrate the Memorial of the North American Martyrs, Saints Isaac Jogues, John de Brebeuf, Rene Goupil and companions, let us pray for the courage to stand up for our faith, live it and share it with others as these men did, giving even their blood. Within and without the Church, there is division, pain, and deviation from the path laid out by Jesus, but he promised that "the gates of hell would not prevail", so let us do our best today to live in faith, hope, love and confidence to make his promise come true. We have nothing to fear: are we not worth "more than many sparrows?" (Lk 12: 7)
Bro. Rene
