Historical Jesus

August 15 is the annual Feast of the Bodily Assumption of Mary (aka Solemnity of the Assumption / The Dormition of the Theotokos). It commemorates the "falling asleep" (death), resurrection, and bodily assumption into heaven of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. The day thus honors Mary entering heaven. Christian denominations that celebrate the Feast include Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, Eastern Catholic, and select Anglo-Catholic/Anglican/Episcopal and protestant Lutheran churches.

Let’s conclude the fascinating saga of Catholic sailor Jacques Cartier’s voyages to what would soon be Christian New France. The Kingdom of Saguenay was a fanciful, mythical country rich in gold and diamonds supposedly located, according to the Natives, inland of present-day Quebec City. Cartier tried in vain to reach this realm on several occasions. From 1541 to 43 France attempted to Colonize Canada at the Cap Rouge settlement along the interior of the St.-Lawrence river valley. Cartier’s superior was Jean-François Roberval, a French military officer appointed viceroy of Canada by The Most Christian King Francis the First.

Christian voyager Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) led his third and last expedition to the St.-Lawrence river valley in 1541. A new headquarters was established a few miles upstream from the Amerindian village of Stadacona, near the present site of Quebec City. This time Cartier was to be followed by Jean Francois de la Rocque, sieur de Roberval, with a party of colonists. After a wait which lasted through the following winter and the Baptism of Chief Donnacona, Cartier set sail for home, only to meet Roberval’s party in three tall ships in the harbor of what is now St. John’s, Newfoundland. Diamonds of Canada, mined by Jacques Cartier's men at the mouth of Rivière du Cap-Rouge proved to be worthless quartz. Cartier’s "treasure" is remembered in the name of Québec’s Cape Diamond or Cap aux Diamants and also in the French proverb "Faux comme un diamant du Canada", "As false as Canadian diamonds."

16th century Christian adventurer Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) and his followers passed a bitter winter with the help of Iroquoian Chief Donnacona at Stadacona. Many of his party died from cold and scurvy before he could set sail for France the following spring in 1536 after erecting a cross near the river, praying for the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and offering baptism to the local indigenous people.

Religious zeal motivated the rulers of European nations to explore and create colonies in North America and to convert the native peoples and sanctify Christian global dominance in the name of Jesus. Catholic navigator Jacques Cartier sailed the Saint Lawrence River (which he named) encountering Lake St-Peter and Nun’s Island. Along the way he visited the future ‘steeples & spires’ cities of Quebec and Montreal where he evangelized the natives by reading the Gospel of John with special emphasis on The Passion of Christ.

European nations explored and created colonies in North America, motivated by God, Gold, and Glory. Particularly in the strongly Catholic nations of Spain, Portugal and France, religious zeal motivated the rulers to convert the native peoples and sanctify Christian global dominance in the name of Jesus.

The first European explorer known to have sailed up the St. Lawrence River itself was Jacques Cartier. At that time, the land along the river was inhabited by the St. Lawrence Iroquoians. Because Cartier arrived in the estuary on Saint Lawrence's feast day of August 10th, 1535, he named it the Gulf of Saint Lawrence and the St. Lawrence River.

Many place names throughout the continent were inspired by Christianity. For example, The mighty St-Lawrence River is the namesake of the early Christian, Laurence of Rome (225-258 AD). Saint Lawrence was one of the seven deacons of the city of Rome, under Pope Sixtus the Second, who were martyred in the persecution of the Christians that the Roman Emperor Valerian ordered in 258 AD. His annual Feast Day is August 10.
