@asaintaday: St Reineldis: Martyr of Mercy. July 16th Reineldis was a 7th-century noblewoman who became a Christian healer and was martyred for her faith and compassion. ——— More about St Reineldis of Saintes: Born to a noble family in what is now Belgium, Reineldis (also spelled Raineldis or Reineld) chose a life of charity and devotion instead of privilege. Inspired by pilgrimage and prayer, she worked as a healer and caregiver to the poor and sick in the region of Saintes. Her mission ended in martyrdom when she and her companions were brutally killed during a raid by pagan invaders. She became especially venerated in Belgium and Northern France, where stories of her selflessness and miraculous care spread. Her relics are housed in Saintes, and she remains a powerful local saint associated with healing, courage, and standing firm in one’s faith amid violence and fear. ——— 🕊️ Let the courage of St Reineldis inspire us to serve with love, even when it puts us at risk. ——— This channel uses AI-generated images enhanced and composited by real human graphics and visual effects artists.
