Priest,poet, mystic and theologian, he was a friend of st. Theresa of Avila and a very talented writer.
He had such a reputation of holiness that he was immediately put in charge of building a new friary. He joined the work crew, serving as a mason. He could heal, see the future, bi-locate and fly. At his death his soul was seen to rise from his body resembling the Globe of the Earth on fire.

Hello, I am wondering if this is the same St. John Joseph of the Cross who was born on August 15, 1654, whose feast day is March 5th?
