==Life==
Eudes was born in 1601 on a farm near the village of Ri, in Normandy,〔("Our History", Congregation of Jesus and Mary )〕 the son of Isaac and Martha Eudes.〔("Saint John Eudes", House of Jesus and Mary )〕 After studying with the Jesuits at Caen, Eudes joined the Oratorians on 25 March 1623. His masters and models in the spiritual life were Pierre de Bérulle and the mystic Charles de Condren. As a student of de Bérulle, Eudes is a member of the French School of Spirituality. The French School was not a system or philosophy, but a highly Christocentric approach to spirituality, characterized by a sense of adoration, a personal relationship with Jesus, and a rediscovery of the Holy Spirit.〔("French School of Spirituality", The Eudists of the Philippines )〕
Eudes was ordained a priest on 20 December 1625.〔 Immediately after his ordination, he came down with an illness that kept him bedridden for a year.〔 During severe plagues in 1627 and 1631, he volunteered to care for the stricken in his own diocese. He went about Normandy committing himself to the sick, administering the sacraments, and burying the dead.〔 To avoid infecting his colleagues, he lived in a huge cask in the middle of a field during the plague.〔(Foley O.F.M., Leonard. ''Saint of the Day, Lives, Lessons, and Feast'', (revised by Pat McCloskey O.F.M.), Franciscan Media, ISBN 978-0-86716-887-7 )〕
At age 32, Eudes became a parish missionary, preached over 100 parish missions, throughout Normandy, Ile-de-France, Burgundy and Brittany.〔 He was called by Jean-Jacques Olier "the prodigy of his age".〔(Le Brun, Charles. "Blessed Jean Eudes." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 5. New York: Robert Appleton Company, 1909. 2 May 2013 )〕
