Dec.15 — The Untold Story of Blessed Mary Frances Schervier: The Nun Who Found Christ in the Sick

Video Description

Discover the untold story of Blessed Mary Frances Schervier — today’s Saint of the Day — the woman who found Christ in the sick, the abandoned, and the poorest of society. Born into a wealthy family in 19th-century Germany, Mary Frances Schervier chose a path few would understand. Instead of comfort and security, she embraced suffering, poverty, and service — dedicating her life to those afflicted by illness, disability, and neglect. This Biographies of the Saints documentary reveals the powerful true story of a nun who walked the streets to care for the sick, welcomed the rejected into her home, and founded the Poor Sisters of Saint Francis to continue this mission of mercy. She believed that every wounded body carried the presence of Christ Himself — and she served accordingly, without fear or hesitation. On this December 15 — Saint of the Day, Blessed Mary Frances Schervier reminds us that holiness is found not in recognition, but in compassion. Her life shows that to touch the suffering is to touch Christ, and that love given to the least becomes a path to heaven. ✝️ Feast Day: December 15 — Saint of the Day #BlessedMaryFrancesSchervier #SaintOfTheDay #CatholicDocumentary
