CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Patrick
Lengthy biographical article on the Apostle of Ireland.
Germain sent him, accompanied by Segetius, his priest, to Celestine, Pope of Rome, approved of by whose judgement, supported by whose authority, and strengthened by whose blessing, he went on his way to .' It was only shortly before his death that Celestine gave this mission to apostle and on that occasion bestowed on him many and other spiritual gifts, and gave him the name 'Patercius' or 'Patritius', not as an honorary title, but as a foreshadowing of the fruitfulness and merit of his apostolate whereby he became pater civium (the father of his people)
It was on 26 March, in 433, that the eventful assembly was to meet at Tara, and the decree went forth that from the preceeding day the fires throughout the kingdom should be extinguished until the signal blaze was kindled at the royal mansion

St. Luke Lutheran Church
Sunnyvale, CA (Lutheran)
    God wants abundant life for us and for all of Godâs creation. We see wars and conflicts all around us, many fought in the name of religion. Our call is to live the life of believers in Jesus Christ who rise above the conflicts and show self-giving, self-sacrificing love.     Our friends from India went from being headhunters to hearthunters because of the word of Christ which came to them by Godâs grace. May we live in the midst of a violent world living a different kind of life, one that truly reveals the Spirit of Christ. We are citizens of an altera civitas, another city, where Christ reigns.     Let your light shine as you welcome the stranger, the friendly ones and those who are not so friendly to begin with. In so doing you are welcoming Jesus himself
St. Francis of Assisi - Catholic Online
Long hagiography, by Terry Matz.
God had waited for him for twenty-five years and now it was Francis' turn to wait
He went off to a cave and wept for his sins
From now on I can say with complete freedom, 'Our Father who art in heaven.'' Wearing nothing but castoff rags, he went off into the freezing woods -- singing
And when robbers beat him later and took his clothes, he climbed out of the ditch and went off singing again
Francis went back to what he considered God's call
When someone told him of a priest living openly with a woman and asked him if that meant the Mass was polluted, Francis went to the priest, knelt before him, and kissed his hands -- because those hands had held God
Following the Gospel literally, Francis and his companions went out to preach two by two
So when Francis wanted approval for his brotherhood, he went straight to Rome to see Pope Innocent III
Saint Therese of Lisieux - Catholic Online
Illustrated biography.
She never went on missions, never founded a religious order, never performed great works
When the superior of the Carmelite convent refused to take Therese because she was so young, the formerly shy little girl went to the bishop
Finally they went for an audience with the Pope
These little sacrifices cost her more than bigger ones, for these went unrecognized by others
After she died, everything at the convent went back to normal
Therese of Lisieux is one of the patron saints of the missions, not because she ever went anywhere, but because of her special love of the missions, and the prayers and letters she gave in support of missionaries

St. Jerome From the book "Lives of Saints," published by John J. Crawley.
He visited his home and then, accompanied by his boyhood friend Bonosus, went to Aquileia, where he made friends among the monks of the monastery there, notably Rufinus
What labor it cost me, what difficulties I went through, how often I despaired and abandoned it and began again to learn, both I, who felt the burden, and they who lived with me, can bear witness
About 380 Jerome went to Constantinople to study the Scriptures under the Greek, Gregory of Nazianzus, then bishop of that city
Two years later he went back to Rome with Paulinus of Antioch to attend a council which Pope Damasus was holding to deal with the Antioch schism
He began with the Books of Kings, and went on with the rest at different times
St Ambrose, Bishop Confessor, Doctor of the Church
Lengthy biography. From Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints.
He learned the Greek language, became a good poet and orator, and went with his brother Satyrus from Rome to Milan, which was then the seat of the praetorium, or supreme court of judicature
Dionysius, had usurped the see of Milan and held it tyrannically for almost twenty years, died in 374
Austin, when he came to visit him, always found him so overwhelmed with such business, or so intent in the few moments he was able to steal to himself, that he often went into his chamber and, after some stay, came out again without being perceived by the holy bishop whom, out of mere pity, he durst not interrupt
Ambrose mentions[5] that there were twenty virgins at Bologna, and that they laboured with their own hands, not only that they might gain a subsistence, but that they might also have wherewithal to bestow in charity
The saint adds the instructions he had given to Ambrosia, one of the twenty virgins at Bologna who served God under his direction: he shows that retirement, silence, humility, and prayer are the principal duties of a Christian virgin

They were young families, headed by husbands and wives in their mid-twenties to mid-thirties
We went to church that morning
When we went down in the basement, it was full of water: rained the night before and the pump hadn’t worked
So some of the men went home and came back with gum boots and went down in the basement and brought all of the choir clothes upstairs
I explained how that had happened, and he went away satisfied that someone else was guilty of the crime
LEADERS: John Hannahs should be mentioned in the history, I believe, for as a member there he went to ETS just before I arrived, and served well as a priest, mainly in Montana and Wyoming

Melville, Herman. 1853. Bartleby, the Scrivener
Online publication of Melville's short story.
There are many singular coincidences I have known in the course of my life, not the least among which was the fact, that exactly when Turkey displayed his fullest beams from his red and radiant countenance, just then, too, at that critical moment, began the daily period when I considered his business capacities as seriously disturbed for the remainder of the twenty-four hours
Indeed, not only would he be reckless and sadly given to making blots in the afternoon, but some days he went further, and was rather noisy
Nippers, the second on my list, was a whiskered, sallow, and, upon the whole, rather piratical-looking young man of about five and twenty
He put chips under it, blocks of various sorts, bits of pasteboard, and at last went so far as to attempt an exquisite adjustment by final pieces of folded blotting-paper
As Nippers once observed, Turkey’s money went chiefly for red ink
I stood gazing at him awhile, as he went on with his own writing, and then reseated myself at my desk

In his place, therefore, they then chose a Frenchman, who took the name of Clement VII and went to live in Avignon, France
This frightful situation went on for thirty-one years, without any solution forthcoming
Despite his earlier loyalty to Benedict, Father Vincent told the king: The faithful are justified in withdrawing their allegiance from him: by his refusal to resign, he is preventing unity in the church. Benedict never did resign, but the ecumenical council deposed him, and in 1415 the bishops went on to elect Martin V
