DW | Holy Saints - Seven Founders of the Order of Servites
In 1240, seven prominent noblemen of Florence mutually decided to withdraw from the city to a solitary place for prayer and direct service to God. The Blessed Mother appeared to each of them individually and urged them to begin a more perfect life. Disregarding birth and wealth, in sackcloth under shabby and well-worn clothing they withdrew to a small building in the country. It was September 8th, selected so that they might begin to live a more holy life on the very day when the Mother of God began to live her holy life.
Join us as we follow the lives of the Saints. Throughout history, these remarkable and often revered individuals have left an indelible mark on the tapestry of human civilization. These exceptional individuals, spanning various cultures and eras, have played a pivotal role in shaping the course of history by exemplifying the highest ideals of humanity.
