Excellent work, LIB. Absolutely stunning graphics. What a hero he was to suffer so much for the love of Christ. So many couldn't take that kind of slow torture--roasted alive on a gridiron. Can you imagine the black soul that would do that to another? The rage and hate against such a gentle soul is sickening, but San Lorenzo didn't back away. He embraced it to unite himself more closely with Christ. He followed the example of Christ with everything he had.

Thank you,JMJ333. Whenever I read about the martyrs,and especially St Lawrence, I think I could NEVERdo something like that! It has to be a very great grace from the Lord. Can you imagine the pain and suffering and then,apparently,they beheaded him! I can't imagine people being that cruel to anothe human being!
