Anna Katharina Emmerick, incompresa monaca morta nel 1824, ebbe il dono della visione: vide come realtà del presente non solo quel che era ontano nello spazio ma anche ciò che lo era nel tempo. Di questo dono nessuno fra coloro che la circondavano si curò. Soppresso il suo convento, rifugiata in una misera abitazione, fu scoperta da Clemente Brentano, laico, uomo colto e pio. Le visioni sulla vita di Gesù Cristo furono pubblicate a Parigi nel 1860, in sei volumi.

Fr. Stanley Rother was true to his word. He did not run. And was martyred at the age of 46. Fr. Stanley arrived in Guatemala in 1968, and immediately identified with his parishioners' simple, farming lifestyle.

In early 1981, his name was on a death list, so he returned to Oklahoma and was warned not to return. But he could not abandon his people, so he went back, and made the ultimate sacrifice for his faith.
