St. Francis Xavier whose feast we celebrate today is a saint of wide significance for the Church across the world but especially for those of us in Asia and Australia. In Australia, he is a national Patron Saint and he did his saintly work of evangelization in Asia - in India, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Japan. But everywhere he went, he came to the poor and needy, healing the sick and binding up hears that are broken. And that is what he comes to us as today.
About the Speaker: Father Michael Kelly is a Jesuit priest and English language publisher of the respected Jesuit periodical, La Civilta Cattolica.
