Biography
John was born in Dukla, Poland, in 1414. He joined the Friars Minor Conventual,[2] and studied at Krakow. After being ordained, he preached in Lwów (then part of Poland), Moldavia, and Belerus; and was superior of Lwów. He may have joined the Observants at a time when efforts were being made to unite the two branches of the Franciscans.[3]
Though he went blind at age seventy,[3] he was able to prepare sermons with the help of an aide. His preaching was credited with bringing people back to the Church in his province.[2] Soon after his death, there was an immediate veneration at his tomb and several miracles were attributed to him.
He died in 1484 in Lwów, Poland. On June 10, 1997, he was canonized by Pope John Paul II in a mass at Krosno, Poland, before approximately one million people

Murdered by his brother Boleslaus at the door of a church; killed for political reasons, but normally listed as a martyr since the politics arose from his faith. Miracles reported at his tomb.

Born to a Chinese father and Filipino mother, both Christians, Lorenzo learned Chinese and Tagalog at home, Spanish from the Dominicans whom he served as altar boy and sacristan. Professional calligrapher and document transcriptionist. Member of the Confraternity of the Holy Rosary. Married layman, and the father of two sons and a daughter.
For unclear reasons, Lorenzo was accused of murder. He sought asylum on board ship with three Dominican priests, Saint Antonio Gonzalez, Saint Guillermo Courtet, and Saint Miguel de Aozaraza, a Japanese priest, Saint Vicente Shiwozuka de la Cruz, and a layman named Saint Lazaro of Kyoto, a leper. Only when they were at sea did he learn that they were going to Japan during a time of intense Christian persecution.
Lorenzo could have gone to Formosa (modern Taiwan), but feared the Spaniards there would hang him, and so stayed with the missionaries as they landed at Okinawa. The group was soon exposed as Christian, arrested, and taken to Nagasaki, Japan. They were tortured in several ways for days. Lawrence and the Japanese priest broke at one point, and were ready to renounce their faith in exchange for release, but after heir moment of crisis, they reclaimed their faith and defied their tormentors.

From 1588 to 1624, he served as superior of several Trinitarian convents in Castile and Andalusia, and served three periods as Apostolic Visitor to the regions.
His theological studies and contemplation of the mission and cooperating of the Blessed Virgin Mary led his to declare that he was a “slave” of Mary, and he founded the Congregation of the Slaves of the Most Sweet Name of Mary on 14 April 1612 for lay people who wanted to help lead people to God through devotion to Mary; the Congregation spread widely, included kings and princes, and helped to care for the poor. He caused the printing of thousands of images of the Blessed Virgin Mary with the caption “Ave Maria” and had them distributed inside and outside Spain. He made and distributed rosary crowns of 72 blue beads on white cord with symbols of the Assumption and of the Immaculate Conception; there was a tradition at the time Mary had lived to age 72.

Martyred in the Spanish Civil War
Thousands of people were murdered in the anti-Catholic persecutions of the Spanish Civil War from 1934 to 1939. I have pages on each of them, but in most cases I have only found very minimal information. They are available on the CatholicSaints.Info site through these links:
• Blessed Amalia Abad Casasempere de Maestre
• Blessed Francesc Xavier Ponsa Casallach
• Blessed Josep Casas Juliá
• Blessed Josep Casas Ros
• Blessed Josep Tarrats Comaposada
• Blessed María Fenollosa Alcaina
Also celebrated but no entry yet
