| San Isidro (Albacete sólo) - Martes 15 Mayo, 2018 Cultura : Nace en 1082.
Es Patrono de los agricultores y de Madrid, España. Su Cuerpo está incorrupto. Descansa ahora en la Real Iglesia de San Isidro de Madrid, antiguo Colegio Imperial de Jesuitas.
Se destaca por su amor a la Eucaristía, su devoción a la Santísima Virgen y su caridad heroica al servicio del pueblo, en especial los niños, los desvalidos y los que sufren hambre de pan y de alimento espiritual.
Su matrimonio con Maria de la Cabeza es un ejemplo de unidad en el amor. Tienen un hijo al que llaman Illán. Este muere al caer en las aguas de un pozo pero resucita por la intercesión de su padre.
En otra ocasión también devuelve a la vida a Maria de Vargas, hija de su patrón y ahijada suya.
Muere San Isidro el 30 de noviembre de 1172, con 90 años, y es sepultado en el cementerio de San Andrés, su parroquia.
Cuarenta años después, en 1212 fue descubierto, por revelación divina, su cuerpo incorrupto.
Sus portentosos milagros, más de cuatrocientos, se estudian en su proceso de canonización.
San Isidro es Beatificado por Paulo V el 14 de junio de 1619 y fija la celebración de su fiesta el 15 de Mayo.
Gregorio XV Canoniza a San Isidro el 12 de Marzo de 1622. Sin embargo la muerte del Pontífice hizo que se retrasara la expedición de la Bula de Canonización de San Isidro Rationi Congruit hasta el 4 de junio de 1724, firmada por Benedicto XIII.
El Papa Juan XXIII extendió el patronazgo de San Isidro a los agricultores y campesinos españoles por Bula Agri Culturam dada en Roma el 16 de diciembre de 1960.
