Mon July 12 (old calendar) St. John Gualbert, Together with two companions built a small monastery, observing the primitive rule of St. Benedict. Thus was laid the founda- tion of the Order of Vallombrosa. Such was St. John’s humility that he would never allow himself to be pro- moted, even to Minor Orders. His charity for the poor caused him to make a rule that no indigent person should be sent away without an alms. He founded sever- al monasteries, reformed others, and succeeded in eradi- cating the vice of simony from the part of the country where he lived. He died on July 12, 1073, at about eighty years of age, and was canonized in 1193 by Pope Celes- tine III. Wed July 14 (old calendar) St. Bonaventure, Bishop, Doctor of the Church, died 1274; Saint Kateri Tekakwitha, Virgin, died 1680 at Caugh- nawaga, Quebec, at age twenty-four; led a life of great austerity and love in spite of ridicule and abuse; called “lily of the Mohawks”; first native American to be de- clared “Blessed” (1980); canonized by Pope Benedict XVI 21 October 2012. Thurs July 15 (old calendar) Saint Henry II, Emperor & Confessor (972 -1024), Duke of Bavaria, became Emperor of the Holy Roman German Empire. He placed his army under the blessing of God and used to invoke the patron saints of his people, especially St. Adrian, a military martyr. With this protection he organized an army and defeated the barbarians from the East who were invading Western Europe. Fri July 16 OUR LADY OF MOUNT CARMEL Sat July 17 (old Calendar) Saint Alexius, Confessor is a perfect model of the most generous contempt of the world. was the only son of a rich senator of Rome, born and edu- cated in that capital, in the fifth century. Having, in compliance with the will of his parents, married a rich and virtuous lady, he on the very day of the nuptials, making use of the liberty which the laws of God and his church give a person before the marriage be consum- mated, of preferring a more perfect state, secretly with- drew, in order to break all the ties which held him in the world. In disguise he travelled into a distant country, embraced extreme poverty, and resided in a hut adjoin- ing to a church dedicated to the Mother of God. Being, discovered to be a stranger of distinction, he returned home, and being received as a poor pilgrim, lived some time unknown in his father’s house, bearing the contu- mely and ill treatment of the servants with invincible patience and silence. A little before he died, he by a letter discovered himself to his parents.
