The Martyrology is not read today, since it is Good Friday, but if it were not, the following would be read.
March 30th anno Domini 2018 The 13th Day of Moon were born into the better life:
At Thessalonica, the birthday of the holy martyrs Domninus, Victor, and their companions.
At Constantinople, the commemoration of many holy martyrs of the Catholic communion, whom the heresiarch Macedonius, in the time of Constantius, put to death by unheard-of kinds of torments. For among other tortures, he cut off the breasts of Christian women by pressing them between the lids of chests, and seared the wounds with hot iron.
At Senlis, the demise of St. Regulus, bishop of Aries.
At Orleans, in France, St. Pastor, bishop.
At Syracuse, St. Zosimus, bishop and confessor.
On Mount Sinai, St. John Climacus, abbot.
At Aquino, St. Clinius, confessor.
V. And elsewhere many other holy martyrs, confessors, and holy virgins.
R. Thanks be to God.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
