St. Elisabeth, a princess of Hungary, devoted her life to the poor and sick, practicing humility, charity, and self-denial. She founded hospitals and gave generously, reflecting Christ’s compassion. Despite courtly responsibilities and opposition, she remained steadfast in faith. Her life demonstrates that love for neighbor is inseparable from devotion to God, and that true greatness lies in service and mercy.
Elisabeth inspires us to serve with compassion and humility. May her example encourage generous hearts, care for the suffering, and joyful obedience to God, reflecting His love in practical ways to those around us.
