Today is the memorial of Saint Andrew Kim Taegŏn, the first Korean priest and martyr and Saint Paul Chŏng Hasang, martyr, and their companions, martyrs.
Pray for Korea, split, as things are not good in that part of the world, either. Here is an interesting biographical sketch of the saints.
If I were ever martyred, I would probably be in the group "companions" and never known. Hmmm...
