They have drunk His cup.. truthhimself.blogspot.com/2018/10/they-have-drunk-his-cup.html "Who are the martyrs? They are Christians won by Christ, disciples who learned well the meaning of “loving to the end” that took Jesus to the Cross. There is no such thing as love in parts, in portions. Love is total: and when one loves, one loves to the end." - Pope Francis “Let us honor the martyrs of the Lord chosen out of every class, as soldiers of Christ who have drunk His cup and were then baptized with the baptism of His life-bringing death, to be partakers of His passion and glory…” St John Damascus Exposition of the Orthodox Faith, 4, 15 Sts.

Watch over our Catholic Faith which you helped to establish in this new land. Bring all our fellow citizens to a knowledge and love of the truth. Make us zealous in spreading abroad a knowledge of Catholic teachings, so that we may continue and perfect the work which you have begun with so much labor and suffering. Pray for our homes, our schools, our missions; for vocations, for the conversion of sinners, the return of those who have wandered from the 2/3 fold, and the perseverance of all the faithful. Amen.
