About the 26 Saints'
The San Felipe incident in Japan in 1596 led to a ban on Christian missionary work in Japan.
This led to the capture of six Franciscan members (four Spaniards, one Mexican and one Portuguese) and 20 Japanese faithful who were in Kyoto and Osaka.
The 26 saints are these 26 believers.
