Blessed Pierre-René Rogue (†1796) was a Vincentian priest and martyr of the French Revolution. Orphaned at three, he was raised by his devout mother and educated at a Jesuit college. Ordained in 1782, he joined the Congregation of the Mission in 1786, serving as a theology professor. Refusing the revolutionary oath of allegiance, he ministered secretly, aiding the faithful despite persecution. Arrested on Christmas Eve 1795 while carrying the Eucharist, he was guillotined on March 3, 1796. Known as the “Martyr of the Eucharist,” he was beatified by Pope Pius XI on May 10, 1934.
