Saint Amato Ronconi (1225 - 8 May 1292) was an Italian Roman Catholic who became a member of the Secular Franciscan Order due to his desire to follow in the footsteps of Saint Francis of Assisi. He was beatified in 1776 and was canonized in 2014. ==Biography== Ronconi was born in 1225 into a wealthy family but was orphaned at a young age. It fell upon his older brother, Giacomo, to care for him. He spent his years growing up in his brother's home. Feeling a call to serve God, he devoted his life to catering to the needs of the poor and assisting the pilgrims. He joined the Secular Franciscan Order and adopted a life of hermitage. He eventually emerged and constructed various chapels and shelters for pilgrims, some of which still exist today. He made four pilgrimages to Spain. His remains are on display in the church of San Biagio in his home town of Saledecio. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amato Ronconi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
