Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini, born on July 15, 1850, in Sant’Angelo Lodigiano, Italy, was a tireless missionary and the first U.S. citizen canonized, founding the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Rejected by convents due to frail health, she formed her order in 1880, aiming for China but sent by Pope Leo XIII to aid Italian immigrants in America. Arriving in New York in 1889, she established schools, orphanages, and hospitals—67 institutions across the U.S., Latin America, and Europe—despite constant illness. Naturalized in 1909, she died on December 22, 1917, in Chicago, her heart failing amid dysentery, leaving a legacy of compassion for the marginalized.
