Today, June 22, our church celebrates the Memorial of John Fisher, Bishop and Martyr, and Thomas More, Martyr. Our treasure is from the letter written in prison to his daughter, Margaret, by St. Thomas More.
St. John Fisher was born in 1469. After completing his theological studies at Cambridge in England, he was ordained to the priesthood. Appointed Bishop of Rochester, he led a most austere life and fulfilled his pastoral role by frequently visiting the faithful. He also composed works against the errors of the time.
Saint Thomas More was born in 1477 and was educated at Oxford. He married and had one son and three daughters. While Chancellor of the Kings Court, he wrote works on the governance of the realm and the defense of the Faith.
Both were beheaded in 1535 by order of King Henry VIII, whom they had resisted in the matter of his divorce: John Fisher on Joan 22 and Thomas Moore on July 6. While detained in prison, Bishop Fisher was named to the College of Cardinals of the Holy Roman Church by Pope Paul III.
