This exhibit documents the persecution and martyrdom of many men, women, and children who, facing a hostile power in Mexico, gave their lives to defend the public presence of the Church in society. Among them was Fr. Miguel Augustin Pro, who was sentenced and executed without a trial in 1927, and proclaimed saint by the Blessed John Paul II in 1988.
