Maria de Lourdes Guarda

Life

A lay faithful; she spent nearly her entire life paralyzed in bed, offering her suffering to the Lord and thus feeling deeply united to the Passion of Christ. Comforted by an intense practice of prayer, she found the strength to respond with faith to her condition of serious infirmity, dedicating herself with a great spirit of charity to apostolate practiced within various ecclesial realities.

Translated from the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints.
