\"\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

Born to a distinguished family in Champagne, from an early age he was interested in the conversion of Protestants. After entering the priesthood<\/a> he was made chaplain<\/a> to King Henry IV. He helped bring the Carmelite<\/a> nuns<\/a> (of the Reform of St. Teresa of Avila) into France<\/a>. In 1611 de B\u00e9rulle founded the Congregation of the Oratory in France on the model of the one formed some years before by St. Philip Neri<\/a> at Rome<\/a>. While heading the Oratory, he was also actively employed in the public affairs of the time; for example, in the arrangements for the marriage of Charles I of England<\/a> with Henrietta of France<\/a>, sister of Louis XIII. Pope Urban VIII<\/a> in 1627 rewarded de B\u00e9rulle\u2019s services to Church and State<\/a> by creating him a cardinal<\/a>. Two years later de B\u00e9rulle died while saying Mass<\/a>. His disciple, St. Vincent de Paul<\/a>, said of him: \u201cHe is one of the most saintly priests I have known\u201d, and his friend St. Francis de Sales declared: \u201cHe is everything which I should desire to be myself\u201d. Cardinal de B\u00e9rulle left several works, the remarkable qualities of which led Pope Urban VIII<\/a> to call him the Apostolus Verbi incarnati. \u201d One of his biographers, Father Cloysenet, has said: \u201cHe wrote the books at his leisure and weighed each word\u201d, and the biographer adds very justly that the reader is rewarded for his trouble, for \u201cit is impossible to read them without feeling oneself filled with love<\/a> for our Saviour Jesus Christ<\/a>\u201c. <\/div>\n
