Edmund Campion. Jesuit Priest. Martyr. 1540 - 1581.

Feast Days:

Patron Saint of the British Jesuit Province.

Born in the shadow of St. Paul's Cathedral, London he was educated at Christ's Hospital School and Oxford University becoming a tutor and Fellow there. He impressed Queen Elizabeth I when he made an address to her. Lord Burghley decribed him as 'one of the diamonds of England'. He took orders as a Deacon in the Anglican Church.

Campion gave up his position and feted lifestyle when he felt called to become a Catholic, travelling first to Dublin and Douai. He became a Jesuit in Rome & taught in Prague before he was ordained priest.

Campion travelled in disguise to England in 1580 in support of the Jesuit mission to England. He preached and ministered to Catholics secretly and wrote in support of the Faith before his arrest and torture in the Tower of London and execution on a charge of treason at Tyburn with Fr. Alexander Bryant SJ  & Fr. Ralph Sherwin.

Many schools and colleges are named in his honour recognising his faith and his academic prowess as student and teacher.

Original artwork by the Benedictine Sisters of Turvey Abbey.
