March 6, 1447 was the death of St. Colette of Corbie, the great reformer of the French Poor Clares.  Her biographer wrote of her:
“I always saw and perceived that she was a true lover of holy poverty in all things and for all things, even in the oratories in which she usually remained during the day, where she heard holy Mass and received the Body of our Lord.”
  A ragged traveler arrived at the Poor Clare Colettine monastery in  Nazareth on this day in 1897, and asked to keep adoration in  the chapel.  The Extern Sister who allowed him into the chapel was suspicious of his ragged appearance, and hid herself in a corner so that she could keep an eye on him.    The man stayed with the Sisters for a time, serving as a handyman and gardener, and also served  the Poor Clares in Jerusalem.  He began working for them on March 6^th.  These two monasteries are pleased that the Church now calls their maintenance man  “Saint Charles de Foucauld”.
