ADDITIONAL INFO: Saint Leonard of Port Maurice 1676-1751 Feast Day: November 26 Patronage: parish missions, missionaries, preachers, Imperia, Italy Saint Leonard of Port Maurice was a Franciscan friar of the Strict Observance who lived at the monastery of St. Bonaventure in Rome. He preached on devotions to the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Immaculate Conception of Mary & the Stations of the Cross, even building almost 600 stations in Italy, including one in the Colosseum. He was ordained in 1703 & became a sought after preacher of parish missions & retreats. The strain of his missionary labors & his mortifications had completely exhausted him when he died in 1751 at his Friary. ©Tracy L. Christianson, all rights reserved. st.
