Biography

Blessed Joaquin Rodríguez Bueno, also known as Ireneo Jacinto, was a professed religious in the Brothers of the Christian Schools, commonly known as the De La Salle Brothers. He was born on August 20, 1910, in Mazuelo de Muñó, a small town in Burgos, Spain.

Joaquin Rodríguez Bueno joined the De La Salle Brothers and dedicated his life to the service of God and the education of young people. He was known for his commitment to the principles of the Christian Brothers, following in the footsteps of their founder, St. John Baptist de La Salle.

During the turbulent years of the Spanish Civil War, which took place from 1936 to 1939, Joaquin Rodríguez Bueno faced tremendous challenges due to his religious vocation. Along with many other clergy and religious who remained faithful to the Catholic Church, he became a target of persecution by anti-Catholic forces.
