This is a special day for my family as my wife and I asked for Saint Catherine to intercede for the safety of our daughter in May 2018. Signs were pointing to another impending miscarriage.
By the grace of God my daughter was safely born and is energetic.
We named her after the Sienese saint.
There hasn’t been a day since then we haven’t asked for the intercession of this amazing Saint and Doctor of the Church.
The only Doctor of the Church who was neither ordained nor part of the consecrated life. Catherine was a third-order Dominican so technically part of the laity. So cool!
Saint Catherine of Siena pray for us!
Quick story đŸ‘‡
Signs were pointing to another impending miscarriage.
This would have been our fifth. Every other pregnancy ended in pain and sadness.
The timing wasn’t the greatest either. My wife was going to miscarry on Mother’s Day 2018.
We had our parish priest administer the sacrament of Anointing of the Sick in hopes for healing.
We petitioned Saint Catherine to intercede and protect my unborn child.
Since May 2018, every night we ask for the intercession of Catherine of Siena as a way to thank her and God.
Avila Catherine Geraldine trying to help me exercise. Lol
By the grace of God my daughter was safely born and is energetic.
We named (middle name) our daughter after the Sienese saint.
