Saint Bonaventure was born in 1221 in Italy. He is the patron saint of San Buenaventura Mission (translated in English Saint Bonaventure) and also the City of Ventura, CA.

After joining the Franciscans and rigorously studying theology and philosophy, Bonaventure became a professor of theology. He wrote extensively on philosophy and theology, but also defended his order and played an integral role in meaningfully explaining the essence and purpose of the lives of the Franciscans. His feast day is July 15th.
He is the patron of diseases of the bowels, the San Buenaventura Mission, and Ventura, CA.
