St Christina

Blessed Christina was named Matthia Ciccarelli when she was born; she was the youngest of 6 children.  Matthia felt God was calling her to pray for those around her and so she became a cloistered nun (kept away from the outside world) .  She joined a convent and got a new name, Sister Christina.  Sister Christina and all the other sisters did all that they could to help the poor people in the city.  Jesus loved Blessed Christina and did amazing things to show her his love.  One time on the feast of Corpus Christi (the celebration of the body of Jesus) Christina floated above the ground and the image of a Host in a golden chalice was shining on her chest.  Jesus used her in many ways to work miracles for the good of others
