Neuware - Pierre Favre (1506-1546), born in a village on the slopes of the Alps, didn't want to be a shepherd. Instead he took the long way round, and after several hundred years became a saint. He was for a time the most wanted man in Europe. The kings of Portugal and Spain and the nobility of Parma and Cologne fought for his counsel. The Vatican ordered him to Germany to save the souls of Reformers. Future saints, like Francis Borgia and Peter Canisius, sought him out as a spiritual director. Friends from his days as a student, Francis Xavier and Ignatius Loyola, called on him to help them build the Jesuits, a new religious order for the age of discovery.
