Saint Peregrine Laziosi is remembered as a man transformed by grace, whose life became a sign of hope for those who suffer. He was born in 1260 in Forlì, Italy, into a family that opposed the Church. As a young man, Peregrine himself was caught up in political unrest and hostility toward the papacy. During one encounter with Philip Benizi, he struck the saint in anger. Instead of responding with force, Philip met him with patience and forgiveness. This moment pierced Peregrine’s heart and began his conversion.
Repentant, Peregrine sought a new life and eventually entered the Order of the Servants of Mary, known as the Servites. There he embraced a life of prayer, penance, and devotion to the Blessed Virgin. He became known for his austerity, often standing for long hours in prayer and embracing hardship as a means of drawing closer to God. His love for the suffering Christ shaped his entire life.
In his later years, Peregrine was afflicted with a serious illness, traditionally identified as cancer in his leg. The condition worsened to the point that amputation was considered necessary. On the night before the operation, he spent hours in prayer before a crucifix, entrusting himself completely to God. According to tradition, he fell into a deep prayer and experienced a miraculous healing. When he awoke, the disease was gone, and his leg was restored.
Peregrine continued to live in humility and service until his death in 1345. His life, marked first by rebellion and then by profound conversion, became a powerful witness to the mercy of God.
The Church honors Saint Peregrine Laziosi as a patron of those suffering from cancer and serious illness. His story has brought comfort to many who face physical trials, reminding them that God is present even in suffering.
Devotion to him is widespread, especially in times of illness. His feast day on May 1 is often marked by prayers for the sick, asking for healing and strength.
In various places, those who suffer gather to seek his intercession, finding in his life both compassion and hope.
Saint Peregrine Laziosi, faithful servant of Christ and comforter of the suffering, pray for us.

What is the SSPX Podcast?
The SSPX Podcast is produced by Angelus Press, which has as its mission the fortification of traditional Catholics so that they can defend the Faith, and reaching out to those who have not yet found Tradition.
What is the SSPX?
The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood.
Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.
Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it.
