Mother Cabrini: Missionary to the World
Product ID: CAY2248
Description: In 1946, Francesca Cabrini was canonized as the first saint of the United States. This Vision book tells the exciting story of this missionary from Italy who came to America to spread the Faith. She founded a new order nuns, the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart, to teach the Faith and work with the poor in our country. She was a tireless missionary who crossed the ocean 37 times to expand her order across the world to France, England, Spain; in Central and South America; in the United States from coast to coast including New York, New Orleans, Denver, Seattle (where she took the oath of U.S. citizenship) and Chicago, where she died in 1917, a saint of our time.
About the Vision Book Series: This series of titles on various saints is great for homeschoolers and all home catechists. New titles are being added to this series every few months. These easy reading biographies are great for ages nine through fifteen, and a nice primer for adults who desire to know more about the lives of these great saints.
