José Sánchez del Río.jpg

Saint José Sánchez del Río (1913–1928), a Mexican Cristero martyr, was executed at 14 for refusing to renounce his faith during the 1920s anti-Catholic persecution. Canonized in 2016, his courage inspires Mexico’s youth and 100–110 million Catholics. His story, depicted in the film For Greater Glory, highlights unwavering devotion amid Mexico’s turbulent history.
