Today is the memorial of Saint Raphael of Saint Joseph Kalinowski† (1835-1907): Saint-link & Wikipedia-link.
Commentary: Look, Mrs. Brother Nacho, a completely uncontroversial Polish saint! Wow!
Also, today's saint was born Józef Kalinowski. He was given the name Raphael of Saint Joseph when he joined the Discalced Carmelites. The Lord changed Abram's name to Abraham & Sarai's to Sarah, Simon's to Peter & Saul's to Paul, so the changing of one's name to reflect one's fealty to the Way, the Truth, & the Life has an unimpeachable pedigree.
