Saints celebrated on the 4th of May
39 HOLY MARTYRS
Today, we also commemorate the 39 Holy Martyrs. The Roman Martyrology states:
"Also, thirty-nine holy martyrs, who were beheaded together after having been condemned to work in the same mines, to be branded with a hot iron, and to undergo other torments."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of the 39 Holy Martyrs may increase our devotion and promote our salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
