December Saints
Saint of the Day December December 1: St. Edmund Campion, Martyr St. Edmund Campion was born in 1540 in Protestant London. An exceptionally bright child, he was given a good education. He went to Oxford in 1557, during the last year of Catholic Queen Mary’s reign. In 1566, he was given the honor of leading a debate in front of Queen Elizabeth I, who was impressed by him. He became a deacon in Church of England, but soon regretted it. He left England to enter a Catholic seminary in France and became a Jesuit in 1573. He knew then that he desired to return to England and secretly minister to Catholics there, despite the dangers. In 1580, St. Edmund went back to England disguised as a jewel merchant. He secretly preached and said Masses for one year before he was arrested, imprisoned and martyred in 1581. St. Edmund is one of the Forty Martyrs of England and Wales. December 2: St. Bibiana, Virgin and Martyr St. Bibiana was an early Christian martyr, probably living during the late 4th century in Rome. Christianity had been made legal by Constantine, but persecutions continued. Bibiana’s parents were martyred, leaving Bibiana and her sister Demetria alone in poverty. They fasted and prayed, refusing to give up their faith. Demetria died of hunger and Bibiana, after undergoing harsh questioning, died a few days later. Their home was turned into a church, and is now the site of the Basilica of Santa Bibiana. December 3: St. Francis Xavier St. Francis Xavier was born in Spain in 1506.

One of the points of difference between the bearings of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs on the one hand and those of the I Police Burghs on the other lies in the fact that the former carry castles and ships to an extent which becomes almost monotonous, while among the latter these bearings are rare. On the other hand, the Police Burghs very frequently assume a charge of which A 079 2 Aberchirder. examples, in the blazonry of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs, are very rare : this is the cross, derived apparently from the fact that their market-crosses are the most prominent of their ancient monuments. In cases where the cross calvary does not appear, a cross of some other kind is often found, as in the present instance.

CCHA Report, 2 (1934-1935), 12-21 THE FIRST HUNDRED YEARS OF THE SOCIETY OF JESUS BY THE REV. F. H. BRADLEY, P H. D. In the year 1534 Henry VIII proclaimed his Act of Supremacy, declaring himself sole head of the Church in England, and thereby laid the cornerstone of the schism that was to develop into a heresy and separate England from the Church of Christ. The same year John Calvin began his career as a heretic and started the movement that worked such havoc in France, in England, and in Scotland. Seventeen years earlier, Luther had hurled defiance at the Pope and begun the breaking up of Christian unity. While all of these agents were working to destroy Christ's work and to dismember His kingdom, Divine Providence was preparing a band of workers to undo the evil that had been done, to strengthen the fortresses of the Old World, and to establish outposts in pagan lands where vast numbers of new members of the great Christian family should replace those who had fallen away or who had been separated from the Church by the disrupting forces of the Reformation. Ignatius Loyola and his little band of religious pronounced their first vows on the Feast of the Assumption of our Blessed Lady, August 15th, 1534. This group of zealous men of God did not have any intention, at the outset, of being special counter-reformers, but it was God's will that they should be one of the most powerful factors in undoing the work of Luther and his followers on the continent of Europe, and in swelling the ranks of Christ's army with fresh recruits from the four corners of the earth.

IGNATIUS OF LOYOLA AUTOR: ANDREW BOBOLA GARCIA, S.J. VISTO BUENO DEL DIRECTOR ,/ Prof. Dr. D. JOSE GARCIA DE CASTRO 'VALDES, S.J. Fdo. Madrid - Diciembre 201 INTRODUCTION Tears and compunction and the First Week of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola Within the context of the classic, month-long Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, the exercises of the First Week constitute a certain sine qua non of fully and deeply experiencing the whole of the Spiritual Exercises. The exercises of the First Week, through the Principal and Foundation, the examinations of conscience (both the particular and general), the invitation to the sacrament of confession and frequent communion, lay down the basic ground work for the conversion experience. They instill in the exercitant1 the important disposition and attitude for continual conversion – a disposition that incisively opens the exercitant up to all the subsequent exercises in an unparalleled way. As such, it is crucial that the exercitant be carefully and completely exposed to all of the dynamics of the meditations of the exercises found within the First Week. Clearly, the central part of the structure of the exercises contained within the First Week hinges upon the meditations on sin and all of its implications and repercussions: from the vile reality of sin and personal sin to the real possibility of damnation and the great gift of salvation wrought by Christ.

Saint John Francis Regis - June 16Th
Saint John Francis Regis - June 16th Born 31 January 1597 France Died 31 December 1640 France At 19, Saint Regis entered the Jesuit order and began to prepare for a priestly ministry that would save thousands of souls. He was ordained at the age of 34 and was then sent to the mission fields of France. In the years since the Protestant Reformation, many French Catholics had become Protestant. Still others were so disillusioned by the Wars of Religion, that they had abandoned Christian faith, entirely. During Regis' day, parishes were known not to have administered the sacraments for twenty years. Many towns were entirely without priests and many of the priests who remained were woefully ill-educated and often ordained hurriedly in order to replace the thousands who had been martyred. During this turbulent period, countless women were forced into prostitution because they had no other recourse for survival. Seeing the need to step in, Saint Regis, began to minister to prostitutes whenever possible, pounding on brothel doors and demanding that new “recruits” be given into his custody. Sometimes, he would see a woman being dragged off by an attacker and would throw himself upon the man, pulling the woman from the grasp of her assailant and allowing himself to be beaten instead. He established safe houses for these at-risk women, whom he came to call “Daughters of Refuge”. Training in lacemaking and embroidery were provided at these locations, giving an alternate income to support the wayward. In addition, St. Regis founded a group of charitable women that helped feed many of the women and orphans during their transition into a productive life, and extended his protection by demanding and receiving, treatment for these abandoned victims of human trafficking, from doctors, nurses and pharmacists.

Jesuit Parish Report
A Jesuit Response to Laudato Si’ A Survey of Parishes in the Maryland & USA Northeast Jesuit Provinces on Parish-Sponsored Pastoral Initiatives, Education Programs, Arts Initiatives, Activities and Collaborations Inspired by Laudato Si’ September 2016 Colorful strips of paper containing students' handwritten commitments to protect the environment form an “Earth Ball” at St. Ignatius Church, Boston. Prepared by: Kate Tromble, Holy Trinity Parish Fran Dubrowski, Director, and Farley Lord Smith, Outreach Advisor, Honoring the Future® Suzanne Noonan, Volunteer, Honoring the Future® & Holy Trinity parish With guidance and support from: Fr. Edward Quinnan, SJ, Assistant for Pastoral Ministries, and Nicholas Napolitano, Assistant for Social Ministries, Maryland and USA Northeast Jesuit Provinces Introduction In response to Pope Francis’ 2015 encyclical, Laudato Si’: On the Care of Our Common Home, many parishes have actively discerned ways to respond to climate change and engaged in a variety of climate justice activities in their communities. The Maryland and USA Northeast Provinces invited Jesuit parishes to share their activities, actions, and resources in order to inform and inspire others. In partnership with Honoring the Future®, a nonprofit project which harnesses the power of art to educate, empower, and engage the public on climate change, the Provinces then compiled the parishes’ responses in this report. This report organizes parish responses into five main categories: Pastoral Initiatives, Education Programs, Arts Initiatives, Activities and Collaborations. This report also provides recommended resources from national Catholic and nonprofit organizations. We hope to inspire all parishes to respond to Laudato Si’ in their own unique way, offering these tangible eXamples and eXtensive resources as a starting point.
