*** These dates constitute our Hof/Ministry's Holy Days of Blótar and Sacred Days of Remembrance.  If you do not know the importance of these Rites, or who these Heroes and Martyrs are, then take the time to learn what they mean and who they are.  They have all made significant contributions with how they lived and died.

Surely, selecting a few from the thousands worthy of our respect was not an easy process! Nor does this selection constitute the entire corpus of our Heroes and Martyrs.  We could honor ten daily for one hundred years and not even begin to cite the myriad whom fill our Rolls of Honor.
