The North American Martyrs: Jesuit Heroes in New France (Christopher Check)

Join Christopher Check, President of Catholic Answers, for a riveting, historically rich account of the North American (Canadian) Martyrs—St. Jean de Brébeuf, St. Isaac Jogues, St. Noël Chabanel, and their companions—Jesuit missionaries who brought the Gospel to New France in the early 1600s. Beginning with a moving Christmas-Eve escape and first Mass in years, this talk traces the rise of the Jesuit order, the scientific and cultural ferment of 17th-century Europe, the explorations of Cartier and Champlain, and the perilous mission fields among the Huron-Wendat, Algonquin, and the Iroquois Confederacy (Mohawk, Seneca, Cayuga, Oneida, Onondaga). You’ll hear how these priests mastered languages, wrote the Jesuit Relations, built missions, and faced unimaginable torture—offering everything for the salvation of souls. More than a history lesson, it’s an invitation to deeper evangelization, love of God, and gratitude for the sacraments (especially Baptism and the Holy Eucharist). What you’ll learn: Why the Jesuits were the “best of the best” in education, science, languages, and spiritual formation. How New France was evangelized and why the Huron country became the mission hub. The gripping martyrdoms of Brébeuf & Lalemant and the return and death of Isaac Jogues. How Noël Chabanel’s hidden heroism speaks to modern believers who struggle with discouragement and discomfort. Practical takeaways for sharing the faith with courage and charity today. 🙏 If this moved you, please like, share, and subscribe. ✉️ Comment below: Which martyr’s story most inspires you—and why? 📖 Suggested reading: Saints of the American Wilderness (John A.
