Saint Robert Bellarmine (Roberto Bellarmino) was born on October 4, 1542, in Montepulciano, Tuscany, Italy, into a noble but impoverished family. From a very young age, he showed a great love for studies and the Christian faith. At the age of 18, he entered the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) and was ordained a priest in 1570.
