Excerpt: Blessed Joseph Vaz (April 21, 1651, Benaulim January 16, 1711, Kandy) was a Catholic Oratorian priest from Goa. He is known as Apostle of Ceylon. He entered Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) when, due to the Dutch colonial occupation, Calvinism was the official religion. He traveled throughout the island bringing the Eucharist and the sacraments to clandestine groups of Catholics. Later in his mission he found shelter in the Kandyan kingdom where he was able to work freely. At the time of his death he managed to rebuild the Catholic church on the island. On January 21, 1995, Joseph Vaz was beatified by Pope John Paul II in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Joseph Vaz was born on April 21, 1651 at Benaulim, his mother's village. His parents, Cristovao Vaz and Maria de Miranda, were Goan Catholics of the Konkani Bamon caste. He was the third of six children. He learned Portuguese in Sancoale, his father's village, and Latin in Benaulim. He studied rhetoric at the Jesuit college and philosophy and theology at the College of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Goa, was ordained in 1676, and became a favorite preacher and confessor.
