2009 Calendar ©
Asian and Pacific Islander Saints and Blessed Calendar 2009
This calendar features 893 native and foreign born saints and
blessed of Asia and Oceania.
To enhance information presented in this calendar the Saints and
Blessed are grouped in a page and introduced by:
- country of origin, or
- country of martyrdom/sainthood,
- dates of canonization/beatification
- memorial day
Names have been added to the Group of Martyrs or Companions in
recognition of their individual lives, the names of large groups of
Martyrs are provided on the last pages of the calendar. The main
source of the names and the photos is the Congregation of the
Causes of Saints; otherwise, they are indicated in parenthesis.
The gifts of life and faith of other Asian and Pacific Islander saints or
blessed who are not featured in the monthly calendars are affirmed
and treasured in the Litany of Asian and Pacific Islander Saints and
Blessed located at the conclusion of the datebook. The Litany includes a line description of the holy women and men.
The Church in Asia sings the praises of the "God of salvation" for
choosing to initiate his saving plan on Asian soil, through men
and women of that continent. It was in fact in Asia that God revealed and fulfilled his saving purpose from the beginning. He
sent his only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ the Saviour, who took
flesh as an Asian! Exulting in the goodness of the continent's peoples, cultures, and religious vitality, and conscious at the same
time of the unique gift of faith which she has received for the
good of all, the Church in Asia cannot cease to proclaim: "Give
thanks to the Lord for he is good, for his love endures for
ever" (Ecclesia in Asia)
This calendar is a tribute to the Asian and Pacific Islander Communities. Our holy women and men represent several countries
and various walks of life. Among the many saints and blessed are
parents, professionals, children, religious, clergy, and members of
the same family.

To follow the lives of those who have been redeemed.
Grant that we your servants, Lord,
May enjoy unfailing health of mind and body,
And through the prayers of the ever Blessed Virgin Mary our mother,
And the martyrs of Asia and Pacific Islands
Free us from our sorrows in this world
And give us eternal happiness in the next.
We ask this through our Lord and Elder Brother, Jesus.
Amen.
