Marguerite Bays

Saint Marguerite Bays (8 September 1815 – 27 June 1879) was a Swiss seamstress and Roman Catholic mystic who was a member of the Secular Franciscan Order. She lived a simple life as a Franciscan and adapted the tenets of the order's charism into her own life and social apostolate, especially after she was cured of bowel cancer on 8 December 1854. Pope John Paul II beatified her in 1995 after the recognition of a miracle attributed to her intercession. She was canonized by Pope Francis on October 13, 2019.
