CAUSA CYRILLUS BERTRAN et VII SOCII necnon INNOCENTIUS AB IMMACOLATA<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Cause includes 8 Brothers of the Christian Schools<\/strong> and 1 Passionist religious.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Brothers of this school were the first victims, massacred in Tur\u00f3n, a mining village in Asturias in 1934, together with their chaplain, in front of the school that was also attended by the children of some of their executioners. It was the beginning of the hurricane that would be unleashed twenty months later across the nation. These Brothers died young, fearless in the face of death, confident that in death they would find life, eternal life.<\/p>\n
