Biography
Blessed Alexandrina Di Letto was born in 1385 in Sulmona, Italy. At the young age of 15, she made the life-changing decision to join the Poor Clares, a contemplative order of nuns. Her profound dedication to God, coupled with her natural leadership abilities, led her to become the founder and first abbess of a Poor Clare convent in Foligno, Italy in 1423.
