The Korean martyrs in a historical print

The image is a black-and-white print with twelve portraits of missionary martyrs of Korea. This representation may appeal to someone who appreciates visual records of the missions. The print accompanies the name of the group to which the design is dedicated and lets you share a reminder of their history with someone familiar with those communities’ role.

The commemoration brings together one hundred and three martyrs from different generations and persecutions of the nineteenth century. It includes bishops, priests and many lay people, women and men of different ages. Reading Christian books and contacts with China contributed to the formation of the earliest Korean communities, which sustained their religious life for long periods without priests. This background can give meaning to a gift related to passing on faith and commitment to community.

The mug carries the name Saints Andrew Kim Taegon, Paul Chong Hasang and companion martyrs. It includes the group’s canonisation in Seoul on 6 May 1984 and the 20 September commemoration. The image and reverse dedicate the keepsake to this shared commemoration in the calendar of saints.
