Saint Gerard Majella left his work as a tailor to follow God’s call to religious life, becoming a lay brother known for his humility, obedience, and deep holiness.
Through his ministry, many experienced miraculous help, especially mothers and children. He is especially remembered for aiding a woman in difficult labor—when touched with his handkerchief, her suffering ceased and her child was safely born. Because of this, he is honored as the patron saint of expectant mothers.
