About this day
Francis de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, won some 70,000 people in the Chablais region back to the Catholic faith by patient preaching. With Saint Jane Frances de Chantal he founded the Visitation nuns, and his Introduction to the Devout Life teaches holiness in every state of life. He died in 1622.
