St. Damien de Veuster: Servant of Humanity

St. Damien de Veuster: Servant of Humanity: Fr. Damien practiced the corporal works of mercy and helped the people to build housing, to clothe themselves and to raise crops. He cleaned and bandaged their sores, bathed them, amputated their gangrenous limbs, and washed their clothes. He restrained the strong from brutalizing the weak. He put an end to the debauchery. He built orphanages and schools.
