    St. Alphonsus

    St. Alphonsus Rodriguez was born at Segovia, Spain, July 25, 1532. At the age of twenty-six Alfonso married Mary Suarez; five years later he became a widower with one surviving child, two others having died previously. He now began a life of prayer and mortification, and on the death of his third child his thoughts turned to a life of areligious Order.

    Persistence in Faith

    Previous associations had brought him into contact with Blessed Peter Faber and some of the Jesuits who first came to Spain, but as he was without education it was apparently impossible for him to carry out his desire to enter the Society of Jesus. At the age of thirty-nine he attempted to make up this deficiency by following the course at the College of Barcelona, but without success. Besides, his austerities had undermined his health.

    After considerable delay he was finally admitted into the Society January 31, 1571 as a lay-Brother. After six months he was sent to the recently-founded college at Majorca, where he remained for forty-six years filling the humble position of porter. He exercised a marvelous influence on the sanctification not only of the members of the household, but upon great numbers of people who came to the porter’s lodge for advice and direction.

    St. Peter Claver lived with him for some time at Majorca, and followed his advice in asking for the missions of South America. After leading a long and holy, austere life, St. Alphonsus Rodriguez died at Majorca, October 31, 1617. He was declared Venerable in 1626, and in 1633 was chUosen by the Council General of Majorca as one of the special patrons of the city and island. He was canonized by Pope Leo XIII on September 6, 1887.
