'''Saint Guy of Anderlecht''' (born c. 950, died 1012) was a [[Saints|Belgian saint]], known as the "Poor Man of Anderlecht" for his humble life of piety and charity. Born in Anderlecht, a village near [[Brussels]], [[Belgium]], to poor but devout parents, he embraced a life of simplicity, serving as a [[Parish|sacristan]] at a church in [[Brussels]] from a young age. After a brief and unsuccessful venture into trade, he returned to a life of poverty, living as a [[Pilgrim|pilgrim]] and hermit, dedicating himself to prayer and service to the poor. His legacy endures through his veneration in the [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholic]] and [[Orthodox Church|Orthodox]] traditions, and the town of Anderlecht, which honors him as its patron saint. | '''Saint Guy of Anderlecht''' (born c. 950, died 1012) was a [[Saints|Belgian saint]], known as the "Poor Man of Anderlecht" for his humble life of piety and charity.
