Feast day: February 27
St. Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows
A fun-loving Italian youth fond of dancing and the theater who, after a brush with death, became a Passionist and died of tuberculosis at twenty-four in radiant holiness.
He was a stylish, theater-loving young man — and became a saint not by great deeds but by doing ordinary things with extraordinary love, dying at twenty-four.
