Blessed Bonaventure of Potenza was born of poor but virtuous parents in Potenza in the kingdom of Naples. At the age of 15, Bonaventure received the Franciscan habit among the Conventuals. and became a home missioner in southern Italy. Noted novice master, and known for the theological depth of his preaching, he worked fearlessly with plague victims. A miracle worker, he had the gifts of healing, and of levitation, and saw the soul of his sister ascend into heaven. He was proclaimed blessed by Pope Pius VI in 1775 and his feast day is commemorated on October 26.
