Paperback. St. Frances of Rome (1384a "1440) displayed mystical gifts from childhood. Though she longed to remain a virgin, her parents arranged a marriage for her, and, as a wife and mother, she led a devout life that mirrored that of a consecrated religious, through fervent prayer and tireless works of charity. In fact, she founded a community of Benedictine oblates who live according to the Rule of St. Benedict, each according to her own state in life; the community now counts thousands of members worldwide.Frequently, St. Frances experienced ecstasies and visions, especially after receiving Holy Communion. In these absorbing pages, translated by Fr. Robert Nixon, O.S.B., her spiritual director records her life, mystical graces, and miracles as well as her severe demonic attacks and her unwavering trust in God throughout.These pages are ideal for reflection before or after Mass or during Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. In the visions of St. Frances, you will encounter the Fountain of light eternal and His embrace as the fire of divine love inflames your heart with more ardent devotion.

St. Frances of Rome (1384-1440) displayed mystical gifts from childhood. Though she longed to remain a virgin, her parents arranged a marriage for her, and, as a wife and mother, she led a devout life that mirrored that of a consecrated religious, through fervent prayer and tireless works of charity. In fact, she founded a community of Benedictine oblates who live according to the Rule of St. Benedict, each according to her own state in life; the community now counts thousands of members worldwide.
Frequently, St. Frances experienced ecstasies and visions, especially after receiving Holy Communion. In these absorbing pages, translated by Fr.
