LISTEN | Morning Prayer - July 23, 2022 | Memorial of St. Bridget, Religious

"Humbly welcome the word that has been planted in you and is able to save your souls."- James 1:21bc

Patron saint of Sweden, St. Bridget married a young prince and lived happily with him for 28 years, bearing him eight children. St. Catherine of Sweden was their daughter. After her husband died, Bridget founded the Order of the Most Holy Savior, erecting at Vadstena a double monastery for monks and nuns. Following the guidance of the Holy Spirit, she later went to Rome, where she worked for the return of the Popes from Avignon. She died of natural causes in 1373, at the age of seventy-one. This Scandinavian mystic is famous for her Revelations concerning the sufferings of our Redeemer. (CatholicCulture.org)
