Biography

Blessed Maria Mancini, also known as Mary Mancini, Mary of Pisa, or Catherine Mancini, was born in 1355 in Pisa, Italy. She had a tumultuous personal life, being married twice, first to Baccio Mancini and then Guillermo Spezzalaste. Tragically, Maria experienced the pain and sorrow of losing all seven of her children in their early years. These hardships led her on a spiritual journey that would ultimately shape her life.
