Getting to know saint Margaret Mary better |
|
|
|
A young sister in the Visitation Order, Margaret Mary was born in Vérosvres.
From her childhood she wants to devote herself to a pious life.
In 1671 she enters the Monastery in Paray le Monial, aged 24 and she receives several apparitions of Christ.
With the help of Claude la Colombière, (canonised in 1992), she spreads the cult of the Sacred Heart. |
