== Biography ==
Jacques Berthieu was born on November 27, 1838, in the area of Montlogis, in Polminhac, in the Auvergne in central France, the son of deeply Christian farmers of modest means. His childhood was spent working and studying, surrounded by his family. The early death of an older sister made him the oldest of six children.〔("Berthieu, Jacques", ''Dictionary of African Christian Biography'' )〕 He studied at the seminary of Saint-Flour and was ordained to the priesthood for this diocese on May 21, 1864. His bishop, Monseigneur de Pompignac, named him vicar in Roannes-Saint Mary, where he replaced an ill and aged priest.〔 He served as a diocesan priest for nine years.〔(Nicolas, Fr. Gen. Adolfo, "The Life and martyrdom of Jacques Berthieu", ''America Magazine'', October 29, 2012 )〕
Because of his desire to evangelize distant lands, and to ground his spiritual life in the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius, he sought admission to the Society of Jesus and entered the novitiate in Pau on October 31, 1873 at the age of thirty-five.〔
