Today the Church honors St. John of God, a Portuguese convert who dedicated his life to caring for the sick, the poor, and the forgotten.
After a dramatic conversion in Spain, John founded a ministry that eventually became the Brothers Hospitallers of St. John of God, an order still serving hospitals around the world today.
In this episode of Saints in a Year, Saul reflects on conversion, charity, and the Christian call to care for those who suffer.
📖 Scripture
Matthew 25:40
“Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”
💬 Thought to Remember
“Where there is charity and love, God is there.”
🙏 Prayer
St. John of God, pray for us. Help us serve the suffering with compassion and humility. Amen.
