Memorial

16 April

Profile

Oldest of fifteen children in a prosperous middle class family. Educated by his uncle, a parish priest . Following his uncle’s death , he tried to join the Trappists , Carthusians , and Cistercians , but was rejected by them all. He spent years wandering Europe , especially Rome , Italy , in complete poverty , spending his days in perpetual adoration in the cathedrals . Given to religious ecstacies when contemplating the crown of thorns ; reputed to float, soar, and bilocate when in these swoons. He begged in the streets, and if he was given more than he needed for the day, he would give the remainder to some one he considered more in need than he was. Benedict healed some of his fellow homeless , and was reported to have multiplied bread for them. Noted counselor to people of all walks in Rome . He died in a hospice, exhausted from his life of austerity . His biography, written by his confessor Marconi, describes 136 miraculous cures attributed to him within three months of his death .
