Gospel Verse, Ps 95:8: If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts. The Roman Martyrology (2004) commemorates St. Daniel Comboni (1831-1881), a missionary in Central Africa who combined the ideal with the practical, drawing inspiration from the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. His missionaries, known as the Comboni Fathers or the Verona Missionaries, have 4,000 members working in countries all over the world.
