Description
Isidore was martyred as a young man in the Congo in 1909. He had been spreading the Good News of Jesus among his fellow workers on a plantation, to the fury of its colonialist owner. Isidore wore the Carmelite Brown Scapular as a sign of his Christian faith, for which he was beaten. Dying of his wounds some months later, Isidore forgave his aggressor. He was beatified in 1994.
