St. Vincent Kaun, your story is very inspiring and powerful. Your conversion to Christianity led you to your death, in service to Jesus. May I have the same faith as you had. Please pray for me and my intentions, in Jesus name. Thank you.

Anthony Vincent Collins, your name is no mere coincidence. To be named after 3 saints of the same day is a chance in a million. God bless you.
I'm proud to be Asian, to know of Asian saints and martyrs. Dear St. Vincent Kaun, pray for us to be brave and courageous. Dispel fear and doubt. Inspire confidence. Let me remember the wonders of Christ's mercy. Amen.

Blessed be God in His mother and all His holy people. By chance, fate - today, 20th June is the feast day of Blessed ANTHONY Turner, Saint VINCENT Kaun and Blessed Dominic COLLINS and my name is ANTHONY VINCENT COLLINS? What are the chances of that happening? I am proud to bear the names of these brave men who were martyred for their faith. May I serve God in some way. I am nothing compared to these brave Christain men but I hope to make them proud of me.

I belong to Christ.
