Brother Knight In The Knights of Columbus

St. Camillus
	Feast Day: Roman Rite Calendar - 07/14 Tridentine Calendar - 07/14 Patron Of: Hospital Workers, Hospitals, Nurses, Sick, Sickness Profile Son of a military officer who had served both for Naples and France. His mother died when he was very young. Spent his youth as a soldier, fighting for the Venetians against the Turks, and then for Naples. Reported as a large individual, perhaps as tall as 6'6", and powerfully built, but suffered all his life from abscesses on his feet. A gambling addict, he lost so much he had to take a job working construction on a building belonging to the Capuchins; they converted him. He entered the Capuchin novitiate three times, but a nagging leg injury, received while fighting the Turks, each time forced him to give up. He went to Rome for medical treatment where Saint Philip Neri became his priest and confessor. He moved into San Giacomo Hospital for the incurable, and eventually became its administrator. Lacking education, he began to study with children when he was 32 years old. Priest. Founded the Congregation of the Servants of the Sick (the Camellians) who, naturally, care for the sick both in hospital and home. The order expanded with houses in several countries. Camillus honored the sick as living images of Christ, and hoped that the service he gave them did penance for his wayward youth. Reported to have the gifts of miraculous healing and prophecy. Born 1550 at Bocchiavico, Abruzzi, kingdom of Naples, Italy Died 14 July 1614 at Genoa, Italy Beatified 7 April 1742 by Pope Benedict XIV Canonized 1746 by Pope Benedict XIV See Related Items All information used with permission of the Patron Saint Index.
