Swiss Catholic saint
About
Jump to
Blessed Marguerite Bays (8 September 1815 – 27 June 1879) was a Swiss Roman Catholic member of the Secular Franciscan Order. She worked as a seamstress and also served as a catechist. She lived a simple life as a Franciscan and adapted the tenets of the order's charism into her own life and social apostolate. This became even greater after she was cured of bowel cancer on 8 December 1854 (when a Marian dogma was proclaimed) and she took this as a sign of greater service to both God and neighbor.
