The Painting of the Martyrs of Gorkum.

This painting of the Martyrs of Gorkum moves me so much 19 Catholic priests and friars tortured and executed by Dutch Calvinists on this day in 1572, after refusing to become Protestants This is true Catholicism, not Francis allowing Protestants to receive Holy Communion.

"One of them, Jeroen of Weert, when they were hanging him, managed to kick the Calvinist preacher from the ladder, who tried to convert him. This saint was the favorite of my father."

"I admire St Jeroen of Weert's spirit and his actions. I pray for the same courage."
