One of the original companions of Ignatius.

Came from very humble means.

Walked Europe in support of dialogue and discussion, determined to find common ground of the soul,

As the Jesuits recently noted,

“Pope Francis has long admired Faber for his “dialogue with all, even the most remote and even with his opponents; his simple piety, a certain naïveté, perhaps; his being available straightaway; his careful interior discernment; the fact that he was a man capable of great and strong decisions but also capable of being so gentle and loving.”

Faber still shows us the way today.
