Can someone please name a saint who spent much time serving the poor and suffering and who also wrote about it? Vincent de Paul, Louise de Marillac, Damien of Molokai would be good candidates if they had written about it. Mother Teresa’s In My Own Words is a possibility and I am getting it.

other recommendations?

This question is in the same vein as my other thread:
How did saints cope with the suffering of the world?
 
How about Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati. Unbeknownst to most of his family and friends… (till after his death)… he spent a great deal of his time, ministering to people suffering in the hospitals.

And he was a very “regular guy”. Not a priest or religious. What a wonderful example he left, for all of us.

You can read more about his life, in the link below.

God bless and Happy New Year :snowing:

St Rose of Liima… but I’m not sure if she herself wrote about it. Others did write about her though.
 
Blessed Josaphata, founder of the Ukrainian Sister Servants of Mary Immaculate.
