Catherine Benincasa (1347-1380) of Siena
Reformer and Spiritual Teacher. Virgen y Doctora de la Iglesia. Patrona de Italia y de Europa.
Mystic, author of The Dialogue.
Dominican, nurse. "Catherine was a courageous worker in time of severe plague..."
During the great schism of the papacy she wrote to rulers and prelates calling on them to restore the unity of the church.
And - the mountains above me, as I write, are named for her. I've wondered (and I won't check) whether they were named because an early European visitor saw them first on her festival day. Today.
For me the plea for Christian unity is appealing - even more so right now the tireless efforts to relieve the suffering of those undergoing an epidemic....
