Saying Goodbye to a Beloved Bishop for The Catholic Faithful
posted (February 27, 2017)
The Official Funeral for Belize's first homegrown Bishop, O. P. Martin was held today in Belmopan City.

But before that there was a Memorial Mass at Holy Redeemer Cathedral in Belize City this morning at 9:00 with a viewing of the body. The church was full to overflowing and many had to take in the service form outside. Inside, the many well wishers and devotees of Bishop Martin, as well as school children filled the pews for the service. OP MARTIN was the Bishop of Belize and Belmopan from 1984 until he retired in 2007. And many who attended today's service were those touched by his ministry, or who had him baptize, confirm, or marry them.
