Description
St. John of God, celebrated as the Patron of Heart Problems. A remarkable figure whose inspiring life embodies faith, compassion, and tireless commitment to serving others. Born in Portugal in 1495, John endured a turbulent early life filled with personal hardships and deep emotional struggles. Nevertheless, these difficulties eventually shaped his journey. After years of wandering and searching for meaning, he underwent a powerful spiritual awakening that dramatically redirected his life toward charity and healing.
Subsequently, in his mid-thirties, John discovered his true calling while assisting the sick and poor in Granada, Spain. He soon established a hospital, which quickly became a haven for the destitute and those suffering from illness. Notably, his care extended far beyond physical treatment. In fact, he showed unwavering concern for the emotional and spiritual well-being of each patient. In many instances, his own possessions humbly sacrificed to help those in greater need, demonstrating his complete selflessness and love.
Moreover, St. John of God remembered for his humility, boundless kindness, and deep trust in God’s providence. He often reminded others that serving the sick was an expression of divine love. Consequently, his legacy inspired the founding of the Brothers of St. John of God—a religious order committed to the care of the sick and the promotion of mental and physical health.
In honor of his virtues, the Irish Blessing Oil dedicated to St. John of God crafted with great devotion. This sacred oil, made from pure and natural ingredients, symbolizes spiritual healing and purity. Each bottle is infused with prayers and has been blessed by the team at A Blessed Call to Love, ensuring it reflects his compassionate spirit.
Additionally, a beautifully designed prayer card accompanies the oil. It invites users to reflect deeply on St. John’s journey and encourages them to live out his example of empathy and service. Ultimately, his legacy continues to inspire countless people to embrace compassion and care in their everyday lives.
