About this sermon
Located on Tiber Island, the Basilica of St. Bartholomew in Rome was dedicated by Pope John Paul II to the memory of the new martyrs of the 20th and 21st century, during the last Jubilee in 2000. More than a thousand years ago, Holy Roman Emperor Otto the Third commissioned the Basilica of Saint Bartholomew. Its purpose was to receive the remains of the apostle who was flayed alive for his faith. Today, it preserves more than 120 relics of 20th century Christian martyrs – the bloodiest century in Church history.
