Serving God in the poor with Elizabeth of Hungary
Saint Elizabeth of Hungary (1207-1231), a princess who became a member of the Third Order of Saint Francis, embodies authority experienced as a radical service to the poor. Widowed at a young age, she renounced honors to found a hospital in Marburg, Germany, and dedicate herself personally to the sick and the destitute, seeing in them the crucified Christ. Her example, marked by the joyful charity inspired by Saint Francis, challenges our relationship to power, material possessions, and social justice today. Canonized in 1235, she is the patron saint of charitable works and healthcare workers, celebrated on November 17.
