Agnes' administrative feats as Abbess at only fifteen, her admirable compassion and heroic perseverance, the impact of her life on those around her, and the progeny of the mystics who followed in her footsteps reveal to us a sanctity that can still be aspired to today."And so also, in our times, the meek and loving Lamb himself, not abandoning us, showed us wonderfully and merciful an image of his own sanctity in a certain spouse of his, a virgin from the region of Tuscany."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
