Saint of the day and spiritual life #Réforme

Saint Charles Borromeo (1538-1584) is one of the most important figures in the 16th-century Catholic Church. Archbishop of Milan, courageous reformer, servant of the poor, and defender of the faith, he is celebrated every November 4th. His name is often associated with the Catholic Reformation and the Council of Trent, of which he was a key architect.

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.
