Almighty and everlasting God, who didst enkindle the flame of thy love in the heart of thy holy martyr Bernard Mizeki: Grant to us, thy humble servants, a like faith and power of love, that we who rejoice in his triumph may profit by his example; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Today we remember Bernard Mizeki, missionary and martyr. He was killed because he refused to leave his people and seek his own safety. ‘Fear not, little flock’, Jesus says (Lk 12.32), God is still King. Let Bernard Mizeki’s courage inspire us to be steadfast today. pic.twitter.com/flEU4ZcTa1
