Carmelite Saint of the Day

SAINT MARY MAGDALEN DE PAZZI


Born in Florence in 1566, she had a religious upbringing and entered the monastery of the Carmelite nuns there. She led a hidden life of prayer and self-denial, praying particularly for the renewal of the Church and encouraging the sisters in holiness. Her life was marked by many extraordinary graces. She died in 1607.
St. Mary Magdalen de Pazzi, pray for us!






Peace be with you!
Rosemarie, ocds
