Today is the feast of St. Camillus (1550-1614) a Roman Catholic priest from Italy who founded the Camillians, a religious order dedicated to the care of the sick. He was beatified by Pope Benedict XIV in the year 1742, and canonized by him four years later in 1746. De Lellis is the patron saint of the sick, hospitals, nurses and physicians. His assistance is also invoked against gambling. - - - - - #stcamillus #saintcamillus #saints #saintoftheday #catholicmen #catholic #catholiclife #catholicism #catholicchurch #art #god #jesus #holy #holyspirit #religion #romancatholic #faith #pray #prayer #patronsaint #instacatholic #christianity #jesuschrist #blessed #saint #catholicsaints #doctor #patronsaint #stcamillusdelellis #feastday #catholicsaint https://www.instagram.com/p/CCoCmp9hgCM/?igshid=3pmznm3q6l5l
