April 28 is the feast day of St. Gianna Beretta Molla, who served among the elderly and needy as a member of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. After earning degrees in medicine and surgery in 1949, she opened a medical clinic and thereafter gave special attention to mothers, babies, the elderly and the poor. This week we’re featuring two videos about her life, produced by Salt + Light media: the first video is 12 minutes long and the other video, “Love is a Choice” is more in-depth and runs 28 minutes.
