“And all who wish to live
piously in Christ Jesus,
will suffer persecution.”
2 Timothy 3:12
“The very hairs of your head
are all numbered.”
Matthew 10:30
“What is the surest kind of witness?
“Anyone who acknowledges that Jesus Christ
came among us in the flesh” (cf. 1Jn 4,2)
and who keeps the commands of the Gospel…
How many there are, each day,
of these hidden martyrs of Christ
who confess the Lord Jesus!
… So be faithful and courageous
in interior persecutions,
so that you may also win
the victory in exterior persecutions.”
St Ambrose (340-397)
Father & Doctor of the Church
“When he has begun to follow Me,
according to My teaching and precepts,
he will find many people contradicting him
and standing in his way,
many who not only deride but even persecute him.
Moreover, this is true,
not only of pagans who are outside the Church
but also of those, who seem to be in it visibly
but are outside of it because of the perversity of their deeds.
Although these glory,
in merely the title of Christian,
they continually persecute faithful Christians.”
St Caesarius of Arles (470-543)
“Rejoice and be happy!
Persevere to the end
and prefer to die
rather than abandon the post,
to which God has called you!”
St Catherine of Siena (1347-1380)
Doctor of the Church
“Let us go forward in peace,
our eyes upon heaven,
the only one goal of our labours.”
St Thérèse of the Child Jesus (1873-1897)
