William Jay, English Congregationalist minister, talks on #evangelization. Some lose ground because of unfeeling or disdainful conduct to those who serve them. An old meaning of condescension, as per M-W, is “voluntary descent from one's rank or dignity in relations with an inferior,” like Jesus.

St. Henry de Ossó: All for Jesus

• A good book is the best counselor, friend, teacher, and corrector.
• If you love God, you will often remember Him.
• Let us love St. Joseph, for he is the most beloved saint of God.
• Let us love our neighbor with Jesus and for Jesus.
• Wait and you will see great things.
• If you want to go to heaven, do not forget that Mary is the gate.
• Suffer, obey, and remain silent for Jesus.
• Truth suffers but does not perish.
• Mary is the breath of the soul; invoking her often is a sign of life.
• The Eucharist is like a blueprint for the passion of Jesus.
• Nothing is achieved without effort, and no virtue is perfected without it.
• Whoever has no interest in the salvation of all does not love Jesus.
• The fullness of the law is love.
• We must have patience with ourselves, for we are human and not angels.
• To know how to pray well is as valuable as living well.
• Through children to the conquest of men.
• To think, feel, and love like Christ Jesus.
• All for Jesus.

St. Henry de Ossó was a passionate educator and apostle who dedicated his life to making Jesus known and loved, especially among young people. Born in 1840 in Vinebre, Spain, he followed his calling to the priesthood with deep devotion and founded the Society of St. Teresa of Jesus. Inspired by St. Teresa of Avila, he used education as a means to lead souls to Christ, emphasizing prayer, virtue, and perseverance.

His legacy is one of tireless evangelization and trust in God’s providence. Whether through his writings, his educational initiatives, or his personal witness, St. Henry sought to instill in others a deep love for Jesus and a commitment to living the Gospel fully. His life motto, “I will always belong to Jesus—his minister, his apostle, his missionary of peace and love,” continues to inspire generations today.
