Story
St.Louis Grignion de Montfort was born on 31st January 1673 in the small town of ‘Montfort’ in France. Even from his childhood days, he was virtuous and exhibited an extraordinary love for the poor. He loved and admired the Mother of Jesus. He became a priest and worked ceaselessly for God and man. He went about from place to place with the message of god’s love. He taught and served the poor people and championed their cause. His love for the abandoned and the beggars made him rugged, unpolished and tempestuous.
He was a great scholar, a powerful speaker and an author of many spiritual works, such as “The Love of Eternal Wisdom”, “The True Devotion to Mary”, “The Secret of Mary” and “The Secret of the Rosary”. His capacity to paint and carve along with his poetic skills has made him a spiritual Leonardo da Vinci.
He never bothered about the consequences of telling the truth, and doing what was right before the eyes of God. He was victimized by the world for his honesty and conviction. As a result he died at an early age of 43, in 1716, on April 28th. The people and the chursss
ch authorities acclaimed him a Saint. He formed many dedicated groups of men and women to carry on his good work, particularly instructing the young. One such organization is the Montfort Brothers of St. Gabriel. Montfort school and many such educational institutions all over India and abroad are administered by the followers of St. Montfort under the banner of Brothers of St. Gabriel. In the year 2003, this congregation in India celebrated its centenary.
