The Last Welsh Martyr, St David Lewis, was a Jesuit priest who was martyred for the Faith during the Popish Plot. The Popish Plot, the invention of the base Titus Oates, began in the summer of 1678 and before its horrific executions ended in 1681, eight Jesuit priests were among the innocent Catholics who gave their lives. Two of the Jesuits, Fr David Lewis and Fr Philip Evans, were canonised by Pope Paul VI in 1970.St Ignatius Loyola was the founder of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits). Today, 31st July, is the Feast Day of this illustrious saint.
The first video tells a little of the story of St Ignatius of Loyola. The second video is the well known prayer attributed to St Ignatius. The prayer has been put to music and it will be familiar to many of us.
HAPPY FEAST DAY TO JESUITS EVERYWHERE!

Hello Bryn, Esther, Denise & Victor
ReplyDeleteThank you for your greetings and comments. I hope you all had a nice feast day. Ignatius is certainly a remarkable saint. I am glad you enjoyed the videos Bryn. Victor, I think the fact that we both chose the same video means that it must be a good cloice - by popular demand, more or less! It is really nice to hear from you all and I hope you will continue to visit. God bless you all.
