“The North American Martyrs, also known as the Canadian Martyrs or the Martyrs of New France, were eight Jesuit missionaries from Sainte-Marie among the Hurons, who were martyred in the mid-17th century in Canada, in what are now southern Ontario and upstate New York, during the warfare between the Iroquois and the Huron. The Martyrs are St. Jean de Br?beuf (1649),St. No?l Chabanel (1649), St. Antoine Daniel (1648), St. Charles Garnier (1649),[2] St. Ren? Goupil (1642), St. Isaac Jogues (1646), St. Jean de Lalande (1646), and St. Gabriel Lalemant (1649).

THE BLOOD OF THE MARTYRS IS THE SEED OF THE CHURCH
(Tertullian (c. 160 c. 220 AD)

Ask these Saints to intercede in pray for you. We were inspired to dedicate this rosary to them but encourage you to rededicate to whomever you wish.
