St. Margaret of Cortana

(Dear Readers: I am still here, I promise...just busy with beginning of the semester and some other projects. Will update soon!)

St. Margaret of Cortona:

1. At the young age of nine, she moved out of her house because life with her stepmother (her mother died when she was seven) was difficult. She entered into a relationship and bore a son.

2. After she found her lover dead in the forest, she converted...her son became a friar even!

3. She herself became a Franciscan tertiary and committed herself to serving others.
