Suitbert G. Mollinger

Fr. Suitbert Godfrey Mollinger (April 19, 1828 - June 15, 1892) was a Catholic priest of Belgian descent, known for his time in the Pittsburgh diocese, where he founded St. Anthony's Chapel, home to the second-largest collection of saintly relics in the world (after the Vatican), acquired under the Father's direction during the 1880s. During his lifetime, Mollinger was widely acclaimed as a healer, his sermons drawing tens of thousands who sought cures and blessings, a reputation that continued well after his death as his image was used to sell patent medicines and herbal remedies into the first decades of the 20th century.
