Blessed Rosalie Rendu, D.C.
Feast Day: February 7

By her life, her works, her spirituality, she embodied the vision painted by Saint Vincent de Paul; you could say that she was the perfect realization of what he meant when he said, over a century before she was born: “This good daughter may be called a martyr of charity… like so many good
Daughters who have given their lives in the service of the poor, that is a martyrdom.” (Coste X:510)
