Francis Xavier embarked in a sailing vessel for India, and after a tedious and dangerous voyage landed at Goa, 6 May, 1542. He would go through the streets ringing a little bell and inviting the children to hear the word of God. When he had gathered a number, he would take them to a certain church and would there explain the catechism to them. About October, 1542, he started for the pearl fisherie

s of the extreme southern coast of the peninsula, desirous of restoring Christanity which, although introduced years before, had almost disappeared on account of the lack of priests. He devoted almost three years to the work of preaching to the people of Western India, converting many, and reaching in his journeys even the Island of Ceylon. "Lord I am here! What do you want me to do? Send me anywhere You like."
