Blessed William Carter
(England, 1548-1684)
Printer and Martyr
This was a man who was tortured for months, while his wife was hounded to death,
for printing Catholic books and possessing Catholic literature, and then was sentenced
summarily to be hung, drawn and quartered, literally, in the fiercely anti-Catholic
period that followed the establishment of the Church of England. He was specifically
condemnded for publishing a book with a paragraph that expressed confidence
'Catholic hope' would triumph, and a line that 'pious Judith would slay Holofernes',
for which he was accused of incitement to slay the Queen. He was beatified in 1987.
NB: Ironically, for someone who was a printer, I cannot find, through my usual Googling, any image
online for Carter.

No OR today.
THE POPE'S DAY
The Holy Father's annual state-of-the-world address to the Vatican diplomatic corps.
Delivered in French, the address has been released in the other official languages of
the Vatican. Mainly, he elaborated on the theme of his Message for World Peace Day -
"To cultivate peace, safeguard Creation".
