Tags: Saint.
Saint Ignatius (ca. 1701 – 11 May 1781) was a Sardinian Capuchin monk and saint. During a serious illness as a young man he made a vowed that if he recovered his health he would consecrate his life to God in the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin. He regained his health but kept putting off the fulfilment of his vow from day to day. There is some indication that his parents raised objections to his entering the Franciscans.
