Christian Saint
Also known as André Dũng-Lạc
Vietnamese martyr caught in sainthood sweep
He was a Vietnamese priest who had been converted by French missionaries.
Unfortunately for him the ruling Emperors were against that sort of thing. He was killed in a sweeping purge along with fifty other converts.
In 1988, the Pope canonized him along with over a hundred other Vietnamese martyrs in a bulk sainthood session.
Mass sweeps by authority figures can go either way.
