November 17 is the memorial of St. Elizabeth of Hungary. St. Elizabeth of Hungary was known for her great kindness and charity towards the poor and the sick. Legend has it that she was carrying some bread to the poor in secret when her husband stopped her and asked what she was doing. She opened her apron (where she was hiding the bread) but the bread had turned into roses. This statue is in St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Superior, WI.
