Catholic Church celebrates San Pablo de la Cruz
The Church celebrates Saint Paul of the Cross on October 19. Paolo Francesco Danei Massari experienced a spiritual conversion in 1713 after hearing a sermon on a Gospel passage. Following this, he made a general confession and began a life of prayer and penance.
Massari later promoted an association for assisting others alongside a group of young people. He spent one year fighting in a crusade encouraged by Clement XI before returning to a life of intense prayer and penitence.
