Saint Stanisław Kazimierczyk

Stanisław Kazimierczyk, born Stanisław Sołtys on September 27, 1433, was a Polish Catholic priest and member of the Canons Regular of the Lateran. Known for his fervent devotion to the Eucharist and his patron saint, Stanislaus of Szczepanów, he dedicated himself to serving the ill and poor in Kraków. His canonization process began under Pope John Paul II on October 14, 1986, and was formally recognized as a Servant of God by the same pontiff on December 21, 1992. He was later beatified and canonized on April 18, 1993, in Saint Peter's Square by Pope Benedict XVI. Stanisław Kazimierczyk is celebrated on May 3 each year for his dedication to the poor and his unwavering faith.
