Thank you so much for sharing the names of the boys who were killed. I was unable to find this information in the articles I read about this shooting. Since the children were killed at Mass I wonder are they considered martyrs?
I am no expert, but I think they will be considered martyrs by the church. One requirement for martyrdom is to be killed by someone motivated by hatred of faith. There is a lot of evidence that shows the killer's pure evil intent to target Christians.
Grieving with you, praying for all those carrying the scars of violence.
Thank you so much.
