Author Biography (1588-1657) Born at Metz in 1588, Jean-Baptiste Saint-Jure was a Catholic priest who in 1604 entered the Society of Jesus (or Jesuit order) at Nancy and for a while taught grammar and philosophy. He served as rector of a school he founded in Alençon and later presided over schools in Amiens, Orleans and Paris. He oversaw the spiritual direction of many prominent mystics, among them Baron of Renty, the Cloistered Dominican nuns of Paris, and Mother Jeanne of the Angels, who was Mother superior of the Loudun Ursuline convent at the time of the Loudun possessions. As a prolific and influential writer, Saint-Jure was well known among the Catholic community of France. He died in Paris in 1657. (1641-1682) St. Claude de la Colombière was born in Saint-Symphorien-dOzon, a small town south of Lyons in France. He entered the Society of Jesus at Avignon when he was seventeen and, following his two-year novitiate, he went on through the various stages of the Jesuit education system to be finally ordained a priest in 1669. St. Claude progressed through his vows, gaining a reputation for the clarity of his sermons. In 1675, he became the rector of the Jesuit community at Paray-le-Monial and spiritual director of the nuns at the nearby Monastery of the Visitation. He believed the truth of Sr. Margaret Mary Alacoques visions and supported her in her devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In 1676, St. Claude was sent to England as chaplain and preacher to the Duchess of York, Mary Beatrice of Modena, who later became the second wife of King James II and so Queen Consort of England, Scotland and Ireland. Hard work and the English climate weakened his health and in 1678, while awaiting his recall to France, he was arrested and imprisoned amid false accusations of a Catholic plot against the English throne. The poor conditions in Kings Bench Prison further worsened his health and though he was saved from a death sentence due to his position at the Court of St. James and the patronage of King Louis XIV of France, he never fully recovered after being expelled from England. He died two years later at Paray-le-Monial, the remote location he had worked in as rector seven years before. St. Claude was beatified by Pope Pius XI in 1929 and canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1992. His relics are preserved in the Jesuit Church at Paray-le-Monial.
