On 4th May 1535 three Carthusian monks were killed at Tyburn. They were first of many English men and women martyred for the Catholic Faith during the Reformation. Of these martyrs, two hundred and eighty four have been canonised or declared blessed. They came from every walk of life and are remembered for the example they gave of constancy in their faith, and courage in the face of persecution.
Almighty God, who in our country raised up martyrs from every walk of life to vindicate the authority of Your Church, grant through their intercession, we pray,
that all our people may be gathered once again to celebrate the same sacraments
under the one Shepherd, Jesus Christ Your Son.
Who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen ... See more
