Saint Didacus, also known as San Diego de Alcalá, became a saint due to his dedicated life of service and piety as a Franciscan friar in the 15th century. He was known for his compassion, humility, and miraculous acts, including healing the sick and caring for the poor. After his death in 1463, he was venerated for his sanctity, and his canonization by Pope Sixtus V occurred in 1588, solidifying his status as a saint in the Catholic Church. His life and deeds continue to inspire devotion, particularly in regions like California, which is named after him.
