Thanks everyone! The final choice was "Medicant of our love".
Joss Heywood May 16, 2007:
Be careful with the use of "Pauper" - theologically it's not normally used to refer to God. Liberation theology speaks of the poor (people), but never paupers, as where God is to be found, and thus God is Poor, but neither he nor the poor are "paupers".
Marina Herrera May 16, 2007:
It all depends who is meant by el Mendigo. Francis of Assisi, for example is called the Mendicant of love in English. If it's somebody else, it could mean something different.

Poorest of all, Mendicant of our love

Just to avoid "pauper", which has a negative nuances that grates my ear, even in Spanish "pauperimo"...
