During the Civil War, he preached Peace in Salamanca and succeeded in putting an end to factions there.
He distributed his rich revenues among the Poor (Epistle) and devoted his time to Works of Charity, to Prayer, and to the Contemplation of Divine Wisdom (Introit).
In order to be ready when The Master came to fetch him (Gospel), he entered The Order of Saint Augustine, where he was distinguished for his extraordinary devotion during Holy Mass. He died in 1479, crying out: "Lord, I place all my confidence in Thee at this last hour, and into Thy hands I commit my Soul."
Let us ask The Holy Ghost, author of Peace and source of Divine Charity, to fill us with the love and spirit of Reconciliation, of which Saint John gave us the example, so that we may never be separated from Jesus (Collect).
Mass: Os Justi.
Commemoration: Saint Basilides and Companions.
