These men and women were arrested because of their faith in Jesus, and because
they were an easy group to blame for the Great Fire of Rome in AD 64. Tacitus, a
Roman historian, Wrote:
“Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for
their abominations, called Christians by the populace… Accordingly, an arrest was
first made of all who pleaded guilty; then, upon their information, an immense multi-
tude was convicted, not so much of the crime of firing the city, as of hatred against
mankind. Mockery of every sort was added to their deaths. Covered with the skins
of beasts torn by dogs and perished, or were nailed to crosses, or were doomed to the
flames and burnt, to serve as a nightly illumination, when daylight had expired.”
“Nero offered his gardens for the spectacle, and was exhibiting a show in the circus,
while he mingled with the people in the dress of a charioteer or stood aloft on a car.
Hence, even for criminals who deserved extreme and exemplary punishment, there
arose a feeling of compassion; for it was not, as it seemed, for the public good, but to
glut one man’s cruelty, that they were being destroyed.”
According to a National Catholic Register article of Jan. 16, 2018, “There are more
than 215 million persecuted Christians worldwide, according to the 2018 ‘World
Watch List,’ Open Doors USA’s annual ranking of the 50 worst countries for vio-
lence and persecution against Christians.” This includes 3,066 Christians killed,
1,252 abducted; 1,020 raped or sexually harassed; and 793 churches attacked.
We need to be aware that martyrdom is not an ancient phenomenon. We need to
pray for our brothers and sisters, who are witnessing to our faith. Mary, Mother of
Martyrs, pray for us.
Yours Truly,
Mr. Tim Mueting

**ATTN PARISHIONERS INVOLVED IN EPS BABY BOTTLE DRIVE**
Joan Niemeyer received a beautiful heartfelt note of Thanks from EPS:
“How can I express our thanks for all the time and effort put into the Baby Bottle Campaign at St. Bernard! I was in awe to find out that
$1,625.55 was collected from St. Bernard! All of your work paid off and the parishioners were so generous to the pro-life cause in helping EPS! This donation will go a long way in assisting women and ba-bies in need in our community and save precious lives. May God
reward you & bless you for your faithfulness.”
In Thanks, Carol Kramper & EPS Auxiliary
