His parents came from Castello di Linari in Val d'Elsa.[3] He was born in a house that was situated on the Ponte alle Grazie. He led a wild and dissolute life as an adolescent that parents warned their sons to keep their distance from him.[2] He became a butcher like his father. He got into a lot of trouble on various occasions during his childhood. Bellacci was accused of having committed a serious crime in 1400 that he in fact did not do and so he wandered the streets of Florence until he met a priest who listened to Bellacci and took him in and helped clear his name.[2][3] The incident shocked him so much - coupled with his appreciation of the priest - that he shed his life of sin and decided to live a life of total penance and service to God. He joined the Third Order of Saint Francis in Fiesole in 1405[3] as a religious rather than a priest and became noted for keeping vigils and fasting.[2] He also became a novice master despite not being a priest.[1] He founded friaries in Corscia[2] Pope Martin V called him to preach in the northern cities against the "Fraticelli" who were a group of heretical Franciscans and was also made Vicar General at the pope's behest; he and Alberto da Sarteano in 1438 were later sent to the Middle East to cities such as Damascus and Cairo in order to promote the reunification of the Eastern and Western Churches when he was over 70.[3] Alberto had to leave due for back home due to his ill health which left Bellacci on his own.[4] He attempted to travel to Ethiopia but the Turks captured him three times. The Florentine merchants helped to secure his release the first two times while he was later imprisoned for his faith and work the third time and expected that he would be killed though Pope Eugene IV helped secure his release.[3] He returned home in 1444 and spent his time in a convent in Abruzzo until 1446. He was known for his diet of water and vegetables.[1][3] Bellacci died in Rieti while on a visit to Rome to visit the pontiff.[1] He planned to ask him for permission to return to the Orient.[2] His remains were relocated in 2006.[1] BeatificationBellacci received beatification from Pope Clement XIV in 1771.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|url=http://www.santiebeati.it/dettaglio/91227|title=Blessed Thomas Bellacci from Florence|publisher=Santi e Beati|date=|accessdate=15 July 2016}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|url=http://catholicsaints.info/blessed-thomas-bellacci/|title=Blessed Thomas Bellacci|publisher=Saints SQPN|date=30 October 2015|accessdate=15 July 2016}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web|url=http://www.cooksinfo.com/st-thomas-bellacci|title=St. Thomas Bellacci|date=|publisher=Cook's Info|accessdate=15 July 2016}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.efo.org.au/Blessed-Thomas-of-Florence.htm|title=Blessed Thomas of Florence|date=|publisher=Ecumenical Franciscan Order|accessdate=15 July 2016}} External links
