Feast of St. John Fisher and St. Thomas More

Commemoration of the VI Sunday after Pentecost. N.B. This Feast is a double of the First Class / First Class in England and Wales

HISTORY

A commentary on the Season in general can be found in the excellent Liturgical Year, by Dom Prosper Guéranger. UVOC Latin / English Propers sheet can be found here. Commentary from the St Andrew Daily Missal

Amoung the Christian heroes who fought resolutely against heresy and laid down their lives rather than adhere to the schism in England, a place of honour is due to Cardinal John Fisher and to the Chancellor Thomas More. John Fisher, born at Beverley in 1469, Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, later for thirty-three years bishop of Rochester, refuted Protestant errors in many learned works. Thomas More, born in London in 1478, a layman, a married man and the father of a family, learned jurist and scholar, was made High Chancellor of England by Henry VIII. Both were imprisoned in the Tower of London by order of the king because they were opposed to his illegitimate union with Anne Boleyn and because they refused him the usurped title of supreme head of the church of England in matters spiritual as well as temporal. John Fisher, created cardinal by Pope Paul III, ascended the scaffold on June 22, 1535, and was beheaded after reading this sentence of the Gospel: “This is eternallife: that they may know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, Whom Thou hast sent. ”Thomas More was beheaded in his turn on July 6, 1535, for having resisted, after the example of the great doctor of the law Eleazar, all solicitations on the part of his own family which he deemed contrary to his conscience and to the rights of God, of Christ and the Church. Pius XI solemnly canonized these two saints on March 19, 1935. May the merits and the prayers of these martyrs of the true faith and of the primacy of the Church of Rome obtain that we may be united in Christ by the same profession of faith.
