Francis Xavier, St (1506–52), ‘Apostle of the Indies’ and ‘of
Japan’, and an original member of the
Jesuits. Of aristocratic Spanish-Basque family, in 1534 with St
Ignatius Loyola and five others he made a vow of poverty and service in the Holy Land or wherever the Pope should send them. In response to a petition for Jesuits from the Portuguese ambassador to
Paul III, Xavier sailed from Lisbon in 1541. In 1542 he reached Goa, which he made his headquarters. He went on to Travancore, Malacca, the Molucca Islands and
Sri Lanka. In 1549 he landed in
Japan, where he founded a Church which endured through great persecution. He died on his way to
China. His work is remarkable for the extent of his journeys and the large number of his converts. Feast day, 3 Dec.
