St. Ignatius of Loyola Catholic Church

St. Christopher Magallanes and companions

Feast Day: May 21

Saint Christopher Magallanes and his companions were faithful priests and lay Catholics who lived and ministered in Mexico during a time of intense religious persecution. They are remembered for their unwavering commitment to their faith and their courageous refusal to abandon their priesthood or their Church, even in the face of great danger. These martyrs offered their lives rather than compromise their beliefs, serving as a testament to their devotion.
