They were killed in 1936 and 1937 by Republican forces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The 11 Nov Mass of Beatification at Madrid\u2019s Palacio Vistalegre, celebrated by Cardinal Carlos Osoro Sierra of Madrid, was a celebration of hope because \u201cthese martyrs believed in the beatitudes and their martyrdom summed them all up.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Cardinal Sierra said that \u201cthese 60 martyrs gave their lives out of love. They died loving and forgiving, demonstrating a wisdom which comes from above, not taking sides in the conflict or getting involved in the civil unrest, but having a wisdom which came from Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cA human being&#8217;s weapons are not hatred or rancour but those of Jesus Christ: the love which engenders life and not death.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Cardinal also emphasized that these 60 martyrs are a model \u201cmore timely than ever because they led the life of God which is always relevant,\u201d especially during \u201ctimes in history when it seems hard for us to forgive. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s good to remember people like these, people who don&#8217;t destroy but forgive instead, who give their lives not for an idea, but for a person: Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Sister Angeles Infante, a Daughter of Charity who is postulator of the cause for beatification \u00a0praised the martyrs&#8217; \u201cfaithfulness to the Vincentian charism, giving their lives, the greatest treasure they had, for Christ.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cThe grace experienced by these martyrs is impossible to understand without faith,\u201d she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0\u201cIt &#8216;s not a violent death that makes you a martyr, but the cause you die for, which is Christ. They gave their lives for God, embodying the faith through their witness, forgiving and asking their families to forgive,\u201d Sr Infante said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Thousands of priests, religious and laity were martyred during the \u00a0Spanish civil war.
