FRANCIS DE SALES
Francis of sales was born in 1567 in Château de Sales in France . While there he had 13 years to think of
becoming a vocation to the priesthood before he had mentioned it to his family. But his father wanted him
to be a soldier and sent him off to Paris to study, while this happened Francis said nothing. Francis was a
very patient man and had gone to Padua to get a doctorate in law and went to study theology and
practiced mental prayers while going to parties and getting into sword fights. And throughout all this he
had not spoken a word, Why did he wait so long? He had waited for gods will to be cleared. And never
wanted to push wishes on god.
WHAT HAPPENED?
• Francis de sales wanted to regain the district of savoy, which a large percentage was turned into
Calvinism. As a result most of the people had returned to the catholic church, later finding a religious
teachings order for women. He was ordained a priest in 1593 and at that time there were religious and
political struggles under control of the Roman Catholic Church.
Who was involved?
• The Main people who were involved were Francis of Sales, Charles Borromeo, and Teresa De Avila.
These were all catholic reformers in the Counter Reformation.
HOW DOES THIS EVENT SHOW RELIGIOUS DISUNITY
IN EUROPE?
• This shows religious disunity in this all because Francis of Sales tried converting The District of savoy,
and had successfully done so, from Calvinism, and made religious works for women.

TERESA DE AVILA
• Born in Spain in 1515
• Became a nun at the age of 20
• Father opposed her plan
• She ran away to a convent in 1536
• After deciding the practices were too difficult, she followed her own rules regarding fasting,
prayer, and sleep.
• In time the church gave her permission to reform the Carmelite order.
WHAT HAPPENED?
• She reformed the Carmelite order. Her spirituality, reported scenes of Christ, her passion for
the Catholic faith inspired people to remain in the church.
WHO WAS INVOLVED?
• The Company of Saint Ursula, an order of women focused on teaching girls, was started by
the Italian nun Angela Merici. The Visitation of Holy Mary order, which trained women to be
teachers, was confounded by Jane of Chantal and Francis of Sales. Mary Ward of England
started a network of schools for girls throughout Europe.
HOW DOES THIS EVENT SHOW RELIGIOUS DISUNITY IN
EUROPE?
• This might have caused religious disunity in Europe because men might have disagreed with the
thought of women being educated and formed their own religious groups.
