We trace the bold, tender reform of Saint Charles Borromeo, from Trent and the Roman Catechism to parish schools, seminary renewal, Eucharistic devotion, and courage during plague. We share why clarity, presence, and charity still rebuild the Church today.

• noble upbringing shaping a call to service
• leadership at the Council of Trent and doctrinal clarity
• the Roman Catechism as pastoral roadmap
• founding CCD to catechize children and workers
• seminary reform and ongoing clergy formation
• pastoral visitations restoring parishes and trust
• confronting error with truth and mercy together
• Eucharistic devotion as the heart of renewal
• courage and charity during the 1576 plague
• practical insights from his spiritual writings
• an invitation to learn, pray, and evangelize
