St. Gianna: “A simple, but more than ever, significant messenger of Divine love”
1st canonized woman physician and professional who was also a
wife and mother.
Many mothers have been beatified/canonized for their
heroic virtues, but they entered religious life after becoming widowed. In the case of St.
Gianna, the very condition of her being a spouse and mother is being exalted and highlighted.
