I hope that by now you have already heard good buzz about the recently released film "
For Greater Glory." It is the story of the Cristiada, those who fought back against the persecution of Catholics in Mexico in the 1920's. I am very excited about this movie, as I have
loved Mexican martyr Miguel Pro since childhood.
I have not yet been able to see the film (three young children do not allow many opportunities to attend an adult movie), but some family members and friends have seen it and provided glowing reviews. This film is also sponsored by the Knights of Columbus.
Ignatius Press
has the movie companion book on sale this week for $10.36. Also, you might enjoy reading this little anecdote on the connection between Aquinas and More Catholic Gifts and St. Miguel Pro. Finally, if you are interested in teaching children too young to see the film about the glorious Mexican martyrs, check out the book and audio products I mentioned here.
Now I'm just waiting for the Mexican martyr action figures!
