Send a textWe trace Saint Louise de Marillac’s journey from noble beginnings and deep personal loss to a life poured out for “our lords the poor.” We follow how Eucharistic devotion, patient discernment, and partnership with Saint Vincent de Paul shape the Daughters of Charity and offer a living model of mercy for the Church today. • early life in 16th century France shaped by privilege, uncertainty, and grief • prayer, education, and interior resilience forming compassion for the marginalized • discernment as a slow surrender to God’s will rather than a single choice • marriage, caregiving, and widowhood as a hidden school of selfless love • founding the Daughters of Charity as service beyond cloister walls • Eucharistic devotion fueling corporal works of mercy in streets, hospitals, and orphanages • suffering, illness, and doubt transformed into persevering trust in divine providence At Journeys of Faith, inspired by the Augustinian charism and grounded in Eucharistic centrality, we invite you to walk in her footsteps, to seek God in contemplation and serve Him in every suffering face.Open by Steve Bailey Support the showChat with US 24/7 Ask us anything https://chatting.page/mjxs9aerrtgm3lmpndlcepmbyosntrjn View all of our blog posts here https://journeysoffaith.com/blogs/eucharist-mary-saints Download Journeys of Faith App for Iphone or Android FREE https://journeysoffaith.com/pages/download-our-app Journeys of Faith brings your Super Saints Podcasts Please consider subscribing to this podcast or making a donation to Journeys of Faith we are actively increasing our reach and we are seeing good results for visitors under 40!
