Nicholas Owen: Layman, Martyr and Builder of Priest Holes

  • $23.95


A lesser-known Reformation martyr, St Nicholas Owen, a Jesuit lay brother and master craftsman, risked his life to build ingenious priest holes, enabling persecuted clergy to minister in secret. Unlike many English Martyrs who faced execution, Nicholas Owen died under brutal torture: his resilience and sacrifice ensuring the survival of the Catholic Faith in England. His story is a powerful testament to the courage of the laity and the extraordinary ways God can use human talents for His greater purpose.
