A Franciscan Martyr of the Cristero War
Fray Junípero Vega professed his solemn vows in February 10, 1905, in the state of Querétaro. With franciscan humility he dedicated his life to prayer, counseling the novices of the Order, serving the sick and poor, and above all, he spent hours every day saving of souls in the confessionary.
During Plutarco Elías Calles’ government and persecution of the Church, Fray Junípero was sent to prison and then freed many times, until he was arrested by the police in La Piedad, Michoacán. From this place he was taken to the nearby train tracks, between the towns of Yurécuaro and Ecuandureo, where he was martyred via firing squad by the civil authorities in February 6, 1928. There was no reason for his execution, except the barbaric hate of Christ and His Church that the judeo-masonic revolutionary government professed.
