Saint Seraphin of Montegranaro (†1604), was an Italian Capuchin friar who is honored as a saint by the Catholic Church. Seraphin's physical appearance was described as that of a peasant: hair always rumpled, clumsy at manual tasks, and mainly illiterate. But his holiness was recognized by many. At times, he was discouraged by the ridicule of his Capuchin brothers. Seraphin would regain his composure and perspective through prayer. He was beatified in 1729 by Pope Benedict XIII and canonized by Pope Clement XIII on July 16, 1767. His feast day is celebrated on October 12.
