Today, Wednesday May 31, the Catholic Church honors Saint Felix of Nicosia.

Illiterate but “doctor” in humility. Felix of Nicosia was a Capuchin friar from the first half of the 700s.

According to the Vatican website, in the convent he was a doorman, shoemaker, nurse.

Outside the compound he teaches catechism to the children and has a good word for everyone.

He died in 1787, and was canonized in 2005 by Pope Benedict XVI.

The Catholic saints are the group of people recognized by the Church as saints or blessed on a specific date. The Roman Martyrology is the document that names and distributes in the calendar the almost 7,000 saints and blessed recognized by the Church.

The saints and saints are prominent men and women in the various religious traditions for their special relationships with the divinities or for a particular ethical elevation. While the consideration of blessed constitutes the third step on the path to canonization.
