Video- The Last Cristero Passes On....

The Last Cristero Passes On....
“I have fought the good fight, I have kept the faith”
Don Juan Daniel Macias is in the center, flanking him on either side
are Don Feliciano Sanchez, and Don Tomas Ramirez.

Juan Daniel Macias Villegas died on 18 February 2016 at the age of 103 years in his native town of San Julián, Jalisco, Mexico.  He began fighting with the ‘Cristeros’ at the age of 13 years.  Don Macias was the last living soldier of the Cristero War. 

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord.
And let the perpetual light shine upon him.
And may his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
