You are the men who have stood by me faithfully in my trials, 

and now I confer a kingdom on you, says the Lord. You will eat 

and drink at my table in my kingdom.

Let us all celebrate the tremendous example of the Korean martyrs--those who embraced the irresistible Presence, though He was utterly foreign to them.  Let us thank them for their sacrifice and for their faith, which worked to extend the one, holy Church and to bring souls to redemption.  

May God grant us all the receptiveness to open ourselves to His irresistible presence, and through the prayers of the Korean martyrs, to help us bring souls to heaven by our example.
