"The life of Saint Martin de Porres is highly relevant today, a mixed race man from Peru who overcame racist law barring him from becoming a full member of any religious order.

“It is deeply rewarding for those striving for salvation to follow in Christ’s footsteps and to obey God’s commandments. If only everyone could learn this lesson from the example that Martin gave us.” – Pope Saint John XXIII"
