Saint of the Day Quote: Blessed Thomas Tsugi

Praise the Lord of all nations!

Last words of Blessed Thomas Tsugi, a native of Japan, as he was being burned alive for being a Christian at Nagasaki on September 6, 1627.  He had refused to allow his family to buy his freedom, wishing to undergo the fate that his fellow Catholics were incurring in Japan at the time.
