FD of St Isidore, a poor Spanish peasant who d on May 15 1130. Among the great Sts canonized with him (St Ignatius, St Teresa) he stands out for his ordinariness. He is simply one of the “little ones” beloved of God. Among canonized Sts quite rare—in heaven, presumably, less so.

Also rare that his wife Maria de la Cabeza too became a saint. A true power couple, in a heavenly fashion.
