description: "Felix of Cantalice, OFMCap was an Italian Capuchin friar of the 16th century. Canonized by Pope Clement XI in 1712, he was the first Capuchin friar to be named a saint. He worked as a shepherd and farmhand until he was twenty-eight. His task as a Capuchin was to beg alms for the friars. So successful was he that Brother Felix was able to extend his collections to assist the poor."
