St. Bridget of Sweden…a “powerful example of feminine sanctity” – Discerning Hearts

This morning I would like to present her, her message and the reasons why — still today — this holy woman has much to teach the Church and the world.

Bridget was born 70 years earlier, in 1303, in Finster, Sweden, a Northern European nation that for three centuries had welcomed the Christian faith with the same enthusiasm as that with which the Saint had received it from her parents, very devout people who belonged to noble families closely related to the reigning house.
