Alexis Falconieri Saint
Alexis Falconieri (Italian: Alessio Falconieri) (Florence, 1200 – Mount Senario, 17 February 1310) is one of the seven founders of the Servite Order, who are celebrated together on the anniversary of his death.After the 1888 canonization of the seven founders, their feast was inserted in the General Roman Calendar for celebration on 11 February, the anniversary of the granting of canonical approval to the order in 1304. In 1909, 11 February became the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, and the feast of the seven founders was moved to 12 February. In the 1969 revision of the calendar, 17 February, the date of death of Alexis Falconieri was judged to be more appropriate.
