St. Landry, Bishop of Paris (10 June): Butler's Lives of the Saints

Saint Landry of Paris, Bishop and Confessor, is honored on June 10 in the traditional Catholic calendar. During a devastating famine in seventh-century France, Saint Landry gave everything he owned to the poor and even melted sacred church vessels to provide relief for those suffering from hunger. As Bishop of Paris, Saint Landry became renowned for his heroic charity and for founding what would become the famous Hôtel-Dieu hospital near the Cathedral of Notre-Dame. His life stands as a powerful witness to the Gospel command to care for the poor, the sick, and the forgotten. In this episode from Father Alban Butler's "Lives of the Saints," discover the remarkable story of a bishop whose love for Christ was expressed through extraordinary works of mercy. 📖 Featured Saint: • Saint Landry of Paris (c. 650 AD) • Bishop of Paris • Founder of Hôtel-Dieu Hospital • Defender of the Poor • Confessor of the Faith 🙏 Prayer: Saint Landry, faithful shepherd and friend of the poor, pray for us.
