Overview

Cross of Nagasaki: The Martyrdom of Saint Paul Miki and Companions In 16th-century Japan, young Jesuit Paul Miki preached Christ's love with courage and kindness. When fear turned to persecution, he and 25 companions-priests, laymen, and boys-were arrested, marched 600 miles in chains, and crucified on a hill overlooking Nagasaki. From his cross, Paul forgave his killers and prayed his blood would fall like ""fruitful rain."" Their deaths did not end the faith. For over 250 years, Hidden Christians kept it alive in secret prayers and disguised traditions until missionaries returned and found thousands still believing. This simple, moving book tells their story: a powerful example of forgiveness, enduring faith, and hope that outlasts even the darkest times. Perfect for anyone seeking inspiration from real courage and quiet miracles.
