That, if you don't know, is Blessed Miguel Pro, a Mexican Jesuit priest, executed during the persecution of the Catholic Church under the presidency of Plutarco Elías Calles after trumped up charges of involvement in an assassination attempt against former President Álvaro Obregón. Fr. Pro was beatified by John Paul II as a martyr on September 25, 1988.
Remember, on this day of Mexican Independence, that true freedom, true liberty, can only come through Jesus Christ. Bl. Miguel Pro knew this and lived it even unto death.
Bl. Miguel Pro, pray for us!
