St. Catherine of Siena

Posted By Eric Sammons On April 29, 2009 @ 7:07 am In Saints | Comments Disabled

Today is the feast of St. Catherine of Siena, one of the great mystical saints of the Church. This humble woman is:

  1. A Doctor of the Church
  2. Patron Saint of Italy (along with St. Francis)
  3. Patron Saint of Europe (along with St. Benedict)

Not bad for someone who only lived to be 33 years old (although I know of someone else who accomplished more in that span).
