The Holy Innocents are those who were slaughtered by the wicked King Herod in his attempt to murder Christ, the Messiah (see St Matthew 2:16-18). All human life is precious, especially the lives of the most vulnerable among us. We honour these innocent children and are assured to see them one day resurrected and rejoicing with our Saviour.
