While in the Maryśin district of Warsaw, I passed the incredibly tall Church of St. Felix of Cantalice:
Have just discovered that St. Felix of Cantalice was a Capuchin friar who lived in the 16th century and went round with a begging sack seeking alms for the poor and needy. For this reason, he was the first Capuchin to be made a saint, being canonised by Pope Clement XI in 1712.
In the grounds of the Church of St. Felix, I also saw this wonderful Lourdes grotto:
Plus a statue devoted to a famous nun or order of nuns:
