John of God

Published: February 28, 2022

St. John of God has inspired many Catholics to help the sick and poor in society. A former soldier, John satisfied his deep longing for God by serving the poor and suffering. He opened multiple hospitals, and cared for the ill himself. He operated with kindness, mercy, and love, no matter the condition of the patient. John of God died as he lived: in the service of others.
