Viva Cristo Rey! Long live Christ the King! The rallying cry for the Cristeros who sacrificed their lives in defense of religious freedom, this phrase was uttered by the youngest of the revolutionaries, 15 year-old Jose Sanchez del Rio, just before his brutal death in 1928 at the hands of the oppressive Mexican government. On the now-saint’s feast day, Laurie and Pete unpack the courageous life of this martyr, and how his fight for the Catholic faith can inspire anyone, young and old, to stand up for the truth of the Gospel. Saint Jose Sanchez del Rio, Patron Saint of Children and Persecuted Christians, pray for us!
