Then, you will see how the Monastic Movement flourished throughout Europe. You will also meet the preeminent mendicant preachers, St. Francis of Assisi and St. Dominic, who each founded influential orders based on the charism of poverty. After that, you will travel to Mount Carmel to witness the founding of the Carmelites, whose mysticism flourished first under John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila, and carried on with such twentieth-century saints as Thérèse of Lisieux. Next, you will encounter St. Ignatius of Loyola, whose command to go forth and set the world on fire continues to guide members of the Society of Jesus throughout the world.
