Se apoderaron de él, lo mataron y arrojaron su cuerpo fuera de la viña.“ Marcos 12, 6-8

“Pueden matarnos, pero no pueden hacernos ningún daño real." + San Justino mártir

¡Oh Dios!, que por la locura de la Cruz enseñaste maravillosamente a San Justino Mártir el conocimiento excelso de Jesucristo; concédenos, por su intercesión, que, habiendo rechazado el engaño y el error, permanezcamos firmes en la fe.
