23 HOLY MARYYRS OF ROME
Today, we also commemorate The 23 Holy Martyrs of Rome. The Roman Martyrology states:
"Also at Rome, during the persecution of Diocletian, the martyrdom of twenty-three holy martyrs, who were beheaded on the Salarian road, and buried at the foot of Cucumer Hill."
PRAYER:
Grant, we beseech you, almighty God, that the venerable feast of The 23 Holy Martyrs of Rome 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.
