It was on September 14, 1594, he set forth on foot to win back to Catholicism, the Calvinists of Chablais. There he sought constantly new ways to teach the people the doctrine of the Church, especially through leaflets. On becoming the Bishop of Geneva in 1602, he organized the teaching of the catechism throughout the diocese, and at Annecy gave the years after his death the “Bishop’s Catechisms” were still vividly remembered. His most famous book, the “Introduction to the Devout Life”, grew out of the casual notes of instruction and advice which he wrote to Madame Marie de Charmoisy. As Bishop, Francis did his best to establish high school though not always successful due to financial crunch and socio-political and religious situation. He encouraged the education of girls.
