The richly decorated Baroque Chiesa di Sant'Ignazio di Loyola (1650) in Rome, Italy, was built by the Jesuits as a preaching church during the Counter-Reformation.

Death of Anthony Maria Zaccaria – July 5, 1539

On July 5, 1539, the Italian priest and reformer Anthony Maria Zaccaria died at the age of 37, leaving behind a growing spiritual movement in northern Italy. Born in Cremona in 1502, Zaccaria was trained as a physician before turning to religious life, driven by a desire to renew the moral and spiritual strength of the Church during a period of widespread corruption and reformist tension.

He founded the Clerics Regular of St. Paul, later known as the Barnabites, along with the Angelic Sisters of St. Paul and the Laity of St. Paul. His work emphasized preaching, education, and pastoral care, aiming to bring the ideals of early Christianity back into daily life. Though his life was short, his influence endured, and he was later canonized as a saint in recognition of his reforming zeal and devotion.

The Vatican has colluded with the Chinese Communist Party to assist in seeking out secret Protestant congregations in exchange for the right to commune with Chinese bishops. They also have coaxed at least three spiritually weak but numerically strong, international Protestant communions (the Lutheran World Federation, the World Communion of Reformed Churches, and the World Methodist Council) into signing the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification while still keeping the Anathemas of Trent in full force.
