Feast day: November 24
Sts. Andrew Dung-Lac & Companions
A Vietnamese priest and the great host of martyrs of Vietnam — priests, bishops, and lay Catholics, native and foreign — who died in waves of persecution over more than a century.
They number one hundred and seventeen canonized martyrs, but stand for as many as a hundred and thirty thousand Vietnamese Christians who died for the faith.
