Be blessed.

Rather than link to a newspaper article/prayer - how about link to the Saint?
Who was she
When did she live
What miracles are attributed to her
When was she Sainted
and finally - how did she come to be a Saint?
I’m a bit curious, but not enuf to look it up - but will click a link.....

So, St. Elizabeth is from Hungary, has a Feast day and watches over the homeless.
Can't make this stuff up.

Thanks for the links as well - very interesting story - a family of Saints, who knew. I didn’t.
Made my day.
