Saint of the day and spiritual life #Valence

Saint Vincent Ferrer (1350-1419) was a Spanish Dominican priest, famous for his eloquence, preaching missions, and miracles. He marked his era with his commitment to reforming the Church and preaching conversion. He is the patron saint of preachers, builders, and people in distress.

The life of the patron saint of winegrowers has improved so much over time that it is difficult to disentangle history from legend. Three facts are historical: he was a deacon; he knew how to dominate the most cruel tortures and, despite his suffering, he sang, laughed and responded with humor to the moods of his torturer.
