Fr. Serra gave up a prestigious professorship in order to work with the Indians.

He was aware of the struggle going on in the American colonies and got some money together and sent it to General Washington because he had heard that men were going without shoes at Valley Forge in the deep of winter.

So in my book he certainly qualifies.
