Patronage:
Patronage: against witchcraft and the evil eye; for repentance and return to the sacraments; against illness. The penitential Brothers of Our Father Jesus the Nazarene thought of him as the founder or organizer of their cofradía, perhaps because his Exercises and his compañía sound like their exercises and their cofradía.
Note:
A Basque soldier, wounded in battle, becoming very devout during his convalescence, prepared for the priesthood and hoped to be a missionary to Palestine; founded the Society of Jesus on the basis of his Spiritual Exercises, a program of prayer. Dressed in a chasuble or a black cassock with or without a surplice, shown sometimes with a biretta, sometimes tonsured or bald; holding a monstrance or a book or plaque marked "IHS"; sometimes there is an apparition of Christ.
