Saint Martin de Porres | CRS Saint of the Month
Saint Martin de Porres spent his life in prayer and works of charity. He used his medical skills to care for anyone in need, including the slaves brought from Africa to his native country, Peru. He is the patron saint of race relations and social justice. We celebrate his feast day on November 3.
