The Catholic Church celebrates the feast of St. La Salle on the anniversary of his death. De La Salle was canonized a saint of the Catholic Church on May 24, 1900 and <b>proclaimed patron of all teachers of youth by Pope Pius XII on May 15, 1950. Lasallians celebrate May 15 as Founder\u2019s Day.<\/b><br \/>\nSt. La Salle\u2019s untiring faith and zeal inspired a modest revolution in Christian education in his day and continue to stir the hearts of educators everywhere. During De La Salle\u2019s time, few people lived in luxury, instead most were extremely poor. Very few could afford to send their children to school. In his pursuit of providing a practical, Christian education to the young, especially the poor, De La Salle left his home, gave up his wealth, renounced his position as a Canon, and moved in with teachers, which formed the Brothers of the Christian Schools. De La Salle\u2019s tuition-free schools welcomed all students, regardless of social standing. He provided free education as a way to liberate the poor and give them hope for the future.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dlszobel.edu.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/image-1.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-12983\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dlszobel.edu.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/image-1-1024x653.png\" alt=\"image (1)\" width=\"650\" height=\"415\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>St. John Baptist de La Salle died April 7, 1719.
