data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>On October 28, 2008, 498 Spanish martyrs were proclaimed blessed by Pope Benedict XVI. This marked the largest number to be beatified simultaneously in the history of the Church. Some fifty thousand people gathered in St. Peter&#8217;s Square for the celebration of the martyrs.<\/p><p>Four Marianists: Miguel L\u00e9iber Garay, SM; Florencio Ar\u00e1niz Cejudo, SM; Joaqu\u00edn Ochoa Salazar, SM; and Sabino Ayastuy Errasti, SM all martyred during the relgious persecution in Spain in 1936, were we among these. From early on, these four Marianists felt the call of Jesus to follow Him in the Society of Mary. And they responded with generosity.<\/p><p><strong>MIGUEL L\u00c9IBAR GARAY<\/strong><br \/>Born February 17, 1885 in Aozaraza-Arechavaleta. He is a sharp kid, happy, a prankster, yet a good student and godly. Not far from his village in Escoriaza is the Marianist Postulate of Nuestra Se\u00f1ora del Pilar.<\/p><p>\u201cDad, I want to be like them.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cNo way, son! &#8211; a boy as mischievous as you could never be a religious. And what\u2019s more, our village always needs many strong arms and you need to help out as well!\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cBut I will help you out in another way&#8230;\u201d<\/p><p>Miguel made his first vows on March 24,1903. He took his perpetual vows in 1907. Armed with a licentiate in philosophy from the Central University of Madrid, he went on to study theology at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland.<\/p><p><strong>FLORENCIO ARN\u00c1IZ CEJUDO<\/strong><br \/>The youngest of four brothers. Born on May 10, 1909, in Espinosa de Cerrata. His parents are farmers. He\u2019s a good child, docile, cheerful, quiet and pious. An excellent teacher in the town makes him his assistant; this way he can help teach the younger students. Florencio loves this. He also helps the pastor as server and he loves this too&#8230; One day, his friend Agapito Alonso tells him: \u201cI\u2019m going to Escoriaza to be a religious.\u201d<\/p><p>And Florencio asks \u201cand can\u2019t I go along as well?\u201d<\/p><p>Florencio takes first vows on September 5, 1926. He graduates in primary education and makes his perpetual vows in 1934.<\/p><p><strong>JOAQU\u00cdN OCHOA SALAZAR<\/strong><br \/>His family lives in Berantevilla, but he is born on April 16, 1910, in the home of his maternal grandmother in Villanueva de Valdegov\u00eda. There are six children in the family: four girls and two boys. They are a very close family. The father works for the local government of the province of \u00c1lava and is stationed with his family in Pe\u00f1acerrada. One fine day, Father Gregorio Lasagab\u00e1ster passes through to talk about the Marianists. Three kids sign up: the two brothers Ochoa and a friend, Agust\u00edn Alonso.<\/p><p>Indeed, two of them would become excellent religious, good educators and school principals. Joaqu\u00edn \u201chas a fine disposition; he is good and responsible, conscientious, a hard worker and pious.\u201d<\/p><p>He makes his first vows on September 5, 1928, and his perpetual vows in 1935. Having completed his bachelor\u2019s degree in Segovia, he is studying for his licentiate in history.<\/p><p><strong>SABINO AYASTUY ERRASTI<\/strong><br \/>He is born on December 29, 1911, in Aozaraza, just like Miguel L\u00e9ibar. He is the sixth of seven children but soon his father dies. He is also set on entering the nearby Marianist community at Nuestra Se\u00f1ora del Pilar. He\u2019s a young man with a rich and sensitive personality with deep feelings. One day he is sent out with the house donkey to do some errands. He doesn\u2019t return and soon they find him on the way, like a Franciscan, urging his donkey forward:<\/p><p>\u201cEat, you little creature, eat, so you can continue to move on and carry me there!\u201d<\/p><p>He has another side though: difficult, rebellious, yet he is of immense good will. His tremendous bursts of anger are soon followed by a remarkably humble repentance. And, as is usual for him, God is all. He takes his first vows with Joaqu\u00edn Ochoa on September 5, 1928.<\/p><p>Father Miguel L\u00e9ibar begins his priestly ministry in C\u00e1diz. Then he is made principal of the Colegio San Juan Bautista in Jerez for six years (1916-1922). He becomes chaplain in Vitoria, then, once again becomes principal &#8211; this time at the Colegio Cat\u00f3lico de Santa Mar\u00eda in San Sebasti\u00e1n (1925-1930). Director of the community, he is a true father to his fellow brothers, fostering their spiritual life and attending to them with tenderness, when they are ill. He is loved by all.<\/p><p>In 1930, he is sent as chaplain to the Colegio Nuestra Se\u00f1ora del Pilar in Madrid, headed by the Servant of God Father Domingo L\u00e1zaro. They become close friends.<\/p><p>He is a first-rate educator \u2013 dynamic, enthusiastic and present to everyone and everything at the school. He knows how to reach his students, to be demand-ing and yet remain close to them. He is their spiritual director and confessor, and he would express his ideal in these words: \u201cThe great wish of my life is to guide souls on the path to heaven.\u201d<\/p><p>A Marianist superior would say of him:<\/p><p>\u201cThe kids love him. He is an essentially dedicated soul, who knows how to bend to circumstances, to people and to the unforeseen situation. As a teacher he has a special knack of attracting students and dealing with them. He makes them like to work&#8230;\u201d<\/p><p>Florencio Arn\u00e1iz flexes his first wings as an educator in September 1928 at the Colegio in Jerez. There he gives himself totally to the youngest students who came to worship him&#8230; not to mention being worshipped by their mothers as well. Always concerned with improving his teaching, he likes to keep up with the latest in pedagogy and pastoral ministry. In September 1933 he is sent to the Colegio del Pilar in Madrid, where again he leaves his unique mark upon his little madrile\u00f1os.<\/p><p>Sabino Ayastuy begins his education ministry in September 1931 with the young Marianist aspirants in his homeland of Escoriaza. He remains there until September 1935 with only one brief period away for course work in San Sebasti\u00e1n. For those whom he helps to discern their call, he leaves an unforgettable remembrance. One of them writes:<\/p><p>\u201cI can still see him with his kind smile, his affectionate demeanor, how he used to enter through the back door of the study and walk toward us without the slightest noise, in order to help us with our course work. And he would whisper in our ear: \u2018Filioli carissimi&#8230; [My dear children&#8230;]\u2019 He truly liked us and we could see his attempts to reign in his anger and ill-tempered disposition&#8230; An intense interior life of faith shone through whatever he taught. He would so often repeat to us those words of St. Paul: &#8220;This is God\u2019s will: that you become saints.&#8221;<\/p><p>Joaqu\u00edn Ochoa, who had begun his education ministry with Sabino in Escoriaza, is sent the next year to the Colegio del Pilar in Madrid. There, from 1932-1936, he is put in charge of the 8 to 10 year olds. He dedicates himself wholeheartedly to them. So note his superiors:<\/p><p>\u201cExcellent religious. Fulfills all his duties faithfully. Upright judgment, prudent, responsible, very tractable. Very dedicated. Wholly in love with his profession as a religious and educator.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
