Blessed John Of Perugia

Blessed John of Perugia, also known as John of the Pennies, was a Franciscan friar who lived during the 13th century. Born in Perugia, Italy, his early life remains largely unknown. However, what we do know about him is his significant mission to preach to the Spanish Moors in Teruel and Valencia, Spain, alongside another blessed friar named Peter of Sassoferrato, under the command of Saint Francis of Assisi.
