Modern Day Martyrs

H/T to Tea at Trianon

A friend and I were discussing modern day martyrs last Saturday evening as we were debating whether or not to greet Immaculee Illibagiza. Her plane had been delayed to a very late hour. She mentioned that Immaculee's parents were martyrs for the faith. That one statement started us recalling more recent martyrs like the young priest and the bishop in Iraq who were killed not too long ago.

My friend expressed her disgust that the MSM does a good job of keeping these acts of heroism in the name of Christianity hidden from the world.

I am glad to have found that these martyrs' sacrifice did not go unnoticed by the Christian world.

The Greatest Story Never Told: Modern Christian Martyrdom

A must read for everyone.
