Life

A professed Cistercian nun, she lived her vocation through a life of physical suffering. Her heroic acceptance of a disabling condition came after a path of prayer and abandonment to Providence that led her not only to accept the illness but to live her suffering by offering it to the Lord, with joy and in a spirit of evangelization.

Translated from the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints.
