Saint Agnes of Montepulciano

Saint Agnes of Montepulciano was born in 1268 in Gracchiano-Vecchio, Tuscany, Italy, into a wealthy family. Even at a young age, Agnes displayed incredible piety and devotion to God. At the age of six, she began to urge her parents to allow her to join a convent. Recognizing her deep spirituality, her parents eventually consented, and at the tender age of nine, Agnes was admitted to the convent at Montepulciano.
