Jean-Bernard Rousseau
Jean-Bernard Rousseau, FSC (22 March 1797 – 13 April 1867) was a French Catholic member of the De La Salle Brothers. He assumed the religious name Scubilion upon his profession and was dubbed the "Catechist of Slaves" due to his extensive decades-spanning work on Réunion Island.
He was beatified in 1989 during the visit of Pope John Paul II to the island.
