About The Popes And The Missions: Four Encyclical Letters
Excerpt from The Popes and the Missions: Four Encyclical LettersWhen the New World was discovered, a crowd of apostolic men, amongst whom was prominent the noble figure of Bartholomew Las Casas, the glory of the distinguished Dominican Order, devoted themselves to the defence and the conversion of the poor natives: while St. Francis Xavier, worthy in truth to be com pared to the Apostles, after having worked so energetically in India and Japan for the glory of God and the salvation of souls, died on the borders of China, towards which he had been going, as if opening up by his death the way for a new evangelisation of those immense regions where members of so many distinguished religious Orders and missionary Congrega tions, eager to propagate the faith, were to exercise the apostolate amidst many vicissitudes.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
