A student of <a href="/wiki/F%C3%A9licit%C3%A9_de_Lamennais" class="mw-redirect" title="Félicité de Lamennais">Félicité de Lamennais</a>, he broke with his former mentor but remained influenced by several of his ideas. He launched numerous pastoral initiatives in the diocese of Nîmes under successive bishops : Claude Petit Benoit de Chaffoy (1822–1835), Jean-François-Marie Cart (1837–1855), <a href="/wiki/Claude-Henri_Plantier" class="mw-redirect" title="Claude-Henri Plantier">Claude-Henri Plantier</a> (1855–1875), and François-Nicolas Besson (1875–1878).

With his first disciples he undertook bold apostolic goals: the foreign missions (Australia, eastern Europe), education, the press, and pilgrimages. He died on November 21, 1880, in Nîmes and was declared Venerable by Pope John Paul II in December 1991. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Assumptionists/Augustinians_of_the_Assumption"><span id="Assumptionists.2FAugustinians_of_the_Assumption"></span>Assumptionists/Augustinians of the Assumption</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Assumptionists&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Assumptionists/Augustinians of the Assumption"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The congregation had its origin in the College of the Assumption, established in Nîmes, France, in 1843, by d'Alzon, vicar-general of that diocese. Organized in 1847, the members took their public vows at Christmas of the next year. A second house was established in Paris, and they continued their work there. The congregation was formally approved by a Brief of 26 November 1864. The chief objects of the congregation are to combat the spirit of irreligion in Europe and the spread of schism in the East. To this end the Assumptionists have devoted themselves to the work of Catholic higher and secondary education, to the spread of truth by means of the Press, to the conduct of pilgrimages, and to missionary work in the East. In addition to their college at Nîmes they established Apostolic schools where poor students were educated for the priesthood without expense to themselves.<sup id="cite_ref-taaffe_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-taaffe-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the 1870s, the Assumptionists established "La Bonne Presse" which issued periodicals, pamphlets, and books in great numbers and expanded into one of the largest Catholic publishing houses in the world, <a href="/wiki/Bayard_Presse" title="Bayard Presse">Bayard Presse</a>. They founded one of the oldest and most influential daily newspapers in France, <i>La Croix</i>. In English-speaking countries its best known publication is <i><a href="/wiki/Catholic_Digest" title="Catholic Digest">Catholic Digest</a></i>. </p><p>In 1873 these religious also began a series of large-scale pilgrimages both within France and to the Holy Land which developed into such current endeavors as the popular national pilgrimage to <a href="/wiki/Lourdes" title="Lourdes">Lourdes</a> every year on the occasion of the <a href="/wiki/Feast_of_the_Assumption" class="mw-redirect" title="Feast of the Assumption">feast of the Assumption</a>, gathering thousands of pilgrims. </p><p>Their activities at the time of the <a href="/wiki/Dreyfus_Case" class="mw-redirect" title="Dreyfus Case">Dreyfus Case</a> aroused controversy. The Assumptionists actively promoted the <a href="/wiki/Conspiracy_theory" title="Conspiracy theory">conspiracy theory</a> that unnamed Jews were destroying French institutions, in particular the Army and the Catholic church, and oppressing the people. One of many examples of their unsourced <a href="/wiki/Antisemitism" title="Antisemitism">anti-Semitic</a> polemic can be taken from their widely-circulated daily newspaper, <a href="/wiki/La_Croix_(newspaper)" title="La Croix (newspaper)">La Croix</a>, for 2 February 1898: </p> <dl><dd>Chaque semaine, les Juifs, qui emploient le fisc à cette triste besogne, se ruent sur les biens de gens désarmés; on vole, au nom de la secte, le pain des pauvres; ça et là, des misérables consentent à acheter à bas prix les immeubles sous la direction occulte du syndicat juif,<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></dd></dl> <dl><dd>(Each week, the Jews, who exploit tax law in this sorry task, seize the goods of defenceless people; in the name of their sect, the bread of the poor is stolen; here and there, wretched people agree to buy buildings at knockdown prices under the secret instruction of the Jewish conspiracy.)</dd></dl> <p>No proof of these assertions is given and no Jewish person or organisation is identified. This overt hate campaign no doubt contributed to the subsequent laws which curtailed the activities of the Assumptionists in France. </p><p>When the Republican party came to power, it <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Catholic_Church_in_France#Defeat_of_Catholicism" title="History of the Catholic Church in France">required religious orders to be reorganized and registered</a>. Some organizations, including the Assumptionists, refused and went into exile instead. In 1900 the congregation was suppressed within French territory, this action being based on the charge that they were accumulating a fund to be used in a royalist movement to overthrow the Republic. Many priests went abroad; other remained in France as secular priests under the authority of local bishops.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>At the <a href="/wiki/History_of_the_Catholic_Church_in_France#Defeat_of_Catholicism" title="History of the Catholic Church in France">time of their "suppression"</a> the Assumptionists maintained twenty Apostolic schools which were all closed. The congregation then took up the work in other quarters. Similar schools have been established in Italy, Belgium, England, and the United States. "La Bonne Presse" was purchased at the time of the suppression by Paul Feron-Vrau, a wealthy manufacturer of Lisle, and all its publications were continued without any change. Much of the good accomplished by the Assumptionists was effected through this medium. No popular Catholic paper had reached a degree of circulation equal to that of "La Croix". In Chile, they publish in Spanish "Echoes from the Sanctuary of Lourdes". In their journalistic work they were aided by the Oblate Sisters of the Assumption, an order established by d'Alzon to assist in their Oriental missions, but whose activities are not contained to that field. Until the suppression they directed the women's section in the publishing rooms of the "Christian Press" as well as the hospitals, orphan asylums, and schools.<sup id="cite_ref-taaffe_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-taaffe-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Among other works carried on by the Assumptionists in France prior to their suppression was that of the "Association of Our Lady of Salvation", a society devoted to prayer, almsgiving, and setting a good example for the reformation of the working class. This society was established in eighty dioceses, and it succeeded in drawing the higher classes of society more closely to the workingmen. It encouraged everywhere social prayer, and social and national expiation, and discouraged human respect, social apostasy, and isolation in piety. It raised funds to convey workmen, pilgrims, paupers, and sick poor to Lourdes to the number of a thousand each year; it was zealous in the cause of workmen's clubs, and of Catholic Schools, and was active in the movement in favour of the keeping of Sunday as a day of rest.<sup id="cite_ref-taaffe_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-taaffe-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Another field of missionary labour was found among the Newfoundland fishermen. Every year 12,000 or 15,000 fishermen left the coasts of France, Belgium, and Ireland, to go to the Banks of Newfoundland for codfish. The Assumptionists organized prominent catholic sailors into a committee and were encouraged to equip two hospital ships to aid the fishermen. The vessels were wrecked twice, but replaced. </p><p>In 1925, the Assumptionists absorbed the English branch of the <a href="/wiki/Fathers_of_St._Edmund" class="mw-redirect" title="Fathers of St. Edmund">Fathers of St. Edmund</a>, also known as the Oblates of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, founded in 1843 by <a href="/wiki/Dom_Muard" class="mw-redirect" title="Dom Muard">Dom Muard</a>. </p><p>On 11 November 1952 at the central prison of Sofia, Bulgaria three Assumptionist priests (Augustinians of the Assumption), Kamen Vitchev, Pavel Djidjov and Josaphat Chichov were executed by firing squad by the Communist regime.
