St. Francis Caracciolo (1563 - 1608) was born in a noble Neapolitan family. He had a rare skin disease, much like leprosy. But that did not stop Francis from becoming a priest. Once he became a priest his skin disease disappeared. In 1588, he co-founded the Minor Clerks Regular (A religious group) and spent the rest of his life as the superior. He was canonized in 1807.
St. Francis Caracciolo please pray for us to be able to have miracles to heal our physical ailments as you did so that we can better focus our attention to God.
