Our brethren in many Islamic countries are living in The Age of Martyrs.

The FACE act has elevated the white martyrdom within our country. Is it truly absurd to think that true martyrdom isn’t far behind if we don’t change policies and leadership? The Age of Martyrs could be upon US sooner than later.
Fr John Hardon S. J. warned us about a hostile culture overtaking America. One that would drive us to celebrating Mass in clandestine environments. Looking at the trajectory of our country I’d say his words are very prophetic.
God, prepare US for battle if ever we are threatened by forces contrary to liberty.
Give US the courage to stand firm as your son Nazir Gill did.
Grant US pardon for not doing everything in our power to have prevented the decline of morals which has lead US to this grave point in history.
Jesus, I Trust in You.
“ One that would drive us to celebrating Mass in clandestine environments.”
If the Mass is prayed in Latin, we’re already there!
Good point CAG.
Nazir Gill brings any cradle Catholic, particular me, to humility. Im in awe of this man – he braved one of the most extreme versions of Islam anywhere in the world- Pakistan. A true hero of the Faith, in every sense of the word.
