Saint Gemma Galgani

"We are disciples of this Jesus who suffered so much.  It is not enough to look at the cross, or wear it, we must carry it in the depth of our heart.  Together, let us visit Jesus Crucified.  Let us look at him; he is lifted up on the cross.  If Jesus is nailed there, let us not complain if we must stand at his feet.  My poor Jesus!  I wish I had a heart composed of all the hearts that love you most, so that I might show you my sympathy and help you." 
(Saint Gemma Galgani)

  1. What an inspiring painting of St. Gemma Galgani! She wrote so many letters in spite of her suffering. She always thought of others. We love you, Gemma.
