Italian Passionist student (1838–1862)
Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows
Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows (Italian: Gabriele dell'Addolorata; born Francesco Possenti; 1 March 1838 – 27 February 1862) was an Italian Passionist seminarian. Born to a professional family, he gave up ambitions of a secular career to enter the Passionist congregation. His life in the monastery was not extraordinary, yet he followed the rule of the congregation perfectly and was known for his great devotion to the sorrows of the Virgin Mary. He died from tuberculosis at the age of 23 in Isola del Gran Sasso, in the province of Teramo. He was canonized by Pope Benedict XV in 1920.
