Bl. Thomas Jihyoe

Blessed Thomas “Kintsuba” Jihyoe is remembered for his unwavering courage and love for God, enduring persecution and ultimately giving his life for the truth. Centuries later, Pope Francis reflected on these early missionaries and martyrs, urging us not to let their witness be a relic of the past but a living flame inspiring new evangelization. Step into the incredible true story of Blessed Thomas Jihyoe—a tale of faith, sacrifice, and triumph—and let his example move your heart toward holiness.
