SAINT ELIZABETH of Hungary is the patron saint of homeless people, lacemakers, tertiaries and widows. It has been said that very soon after her death, miracles were reported that happened at her grave in the church of the hospital, especially miracles of healing. Elizabeth is perhaps best known for the legend which says that while she was taking bread to the poor in secret,, her husband asked her what was in the pouch; Elisabeth opened it and the bread turned into roses. Her feast day is celebrated on November 17.
