Happy memorial of Bl. Joseph Vaz. He was amazing! A priest from India, he worked in secret in Calvinist-held territory on Sri Lanka, where Catholicism was outlawed. He was so successful all over the island, he is called the apostle of Sri Lanka.
Here are some other links to stories on Bl. Joseph. Everyone should know more about this incredible man.
