- St. Catherine of Siena was born during the outbreak of the plague in Siena, Italy on March 25, 1347. She was the 25th child born to her mother, although half of her brothers and sisters did not survive childhood. Catherine herself was a twin, but her sister did not survive infancy. Her mother was 40 when she was born. Her father was a cloth dyer.
At the age of 16, Catherine's sister, Bonaventura, died, leaving her husband as a widower. Catherine's parents proposed that he marry Catherine as a replacement, but Catherine opposed this. She began fasting and cut her hair short to mar her appearance.
Her parents attempted to resist this move, to avoid marriage, but they were unsuccessful. Her fasting and her devotion to her family, convinced them to relent and allow her to live as she pleased. Catherine once explained that she regarded her father as a representation of Jesus and her mother as Our Lady, and her brothers as the apostles, which helped her to serve them with humility.
Despite Catherine's religious nature, she did not choose to enter a convent and instead she joined the Third Order of St. Dominic, which allowed her to associate with a religious society while living at home.
Fellow Dominican sisters taught St. Catherine how to read. Meanwhile, she lived quietly, isolated within her family home.
St. Catherine developed a habit of giving things away and she continually gave away her family's food and clothing to people in need. She never asked permission to give these things away, and she quietly put up with their criticisms.
Something changed her when she was 21. She described an experience she referred to as her "mystical marriage to Christ." There are debates over whether or not St. Catherine was given a ring with some claiming she was given a bejeweled ring, and other claiming the ring was made of Jesus's skin. St. Catherine herself started the rumor of the latter in her writings, but she was known to often claim the ring itself was invisible.
Such mystical experiences change people, and St. Catherine was no exception. In her vision, she was told to reenter public life and to help the poor and sick. She immediately rejoined her family and went into public to help people in need.
She often visited hospitals and homes where the poor and sick were found. Her activities quickly attracted followers who helped her in her mission to serve the poor and sick.
St. Catherine was drawn further into the world as she worked, and eventually she began to travel, calling for reform of the Church and for people to confess and to love God totally. She became involved in politics, and was key in working to keep city states loyal to the Pope. She was also credited with helping to start a crusade to the Holy Land. On one occasion, she visited a condemned political prisoner and was credited with saving his soul, which she saw being taken up to heaven at the moment of his death.
St. Catherine allegedly was given the stigmata, but like her ring, it was visible only to herself. She took Bl. Raymond of Capua has her confessor and spiritual director.
From 1375 onwards, St. Catherine began dictating letters to scribes. She petitioned for peace and was instrumental in persuading the Pope in Avignon to return to Rome.
She became involved in the fractured politics of her time, but was instrumental in restoring the Papacy to Rome and in brokering peace deals during a time of factional conflict and war between the Italian city states.
She also established a monastery for women in 1377 outside of Siena. She is credited with composing over 400 letters, her Dialogue, which is her definitive work, and her prayers. These works are so influential that St. Catherine would later be declared a Doctor of the Church. She is one of the most influential and popular saints in the Church.

St. Catherine of Sienna, please pray for my daughter-in-law, Stephenie. May she conceive a child and hold it until birth. Help her so that she does not experience a miscarriage again.
My sister, Sienna, is named after this Saint, and so Saint Catherine was her patroness when she was confirmed in 2015.
That's awesome!
Does she also drink cancerous pus and wear a divine foreskin as her wedding ring?

She is honored by many from different faiths and beliefs...because she connected with GOD, not thru the church, but thru her own devotion. She then became a church supporter in the most wholesome way...putting the good of people above all..!

"She is the patroness against fire, illness, the United States, miscarriages, and nurses..." I don't think that came out quite the way you wanted it to, my friend.
Ahahahahah against U.S
@@lonelyberg1316 And against nurses, for that matter.
@@emilylike-the-soup2502 oh yeah
beginning @ 2:24: "she is the patroness against fire illness the United States Italy miscarriages people ridiculed for their faith sexual temptation and nurses" ----- huh? must be some Qanon code!
Thanks-that sentence gave me a double take 😎
🙏🙏🙏😇
You know, Catherine is why Cath-ol-ics Are named whAt they are for St Catherine did the will of God. She actually did marry Christ in the spirit. She is the one who he said to the woman," those that do the will of my father in heaven."
I know this is unintentional, but the video ends by describing St. Catherine as "the patroness against fire, illness, the United States, Italy, miscarriages, people ridiculed for their faith, sexual temptation, and nurses." This makes it sound like she is opposed to a number of things and people -- including America, martyrs, and nurses -- that I doubt she objected to. I presume the video can be gently re-edited.
“She was given the stigmata, but it was visible only to herself.” So she was a liar lol.
God bless your soul
2:26 She is against the United States....I love of that one slipped thou 😂
I'd say this was a quite polished picture of Cathy. Care to show the details about her hidden under the rug?
Michael - what are the hidden details? Please explain.
@@josephbyrne2711 How about her severe anorexia from age 25 and until her death? Or her pathological delusions of being married to jesus and having his foreskin as wedding ring (which of course was invisible to all but her) or licking pus from a woman she was nursing and calling it sweeter than any food or drink she'd ever tasted? I'd say she did not have all the indians in her canoe. But for some odd reason teh church always seem to "forget" those details. Wonder why? 🤔
I don’t know what you mean here. Compared to some other people revered as Saints, Catherine was quite clean. She negotiated peace between warring Florence and Rome, was almost killed by a murderous mob and a mad monk, corresponded with numerous Kings and Queens, and comforted men on death row.
@@thenablade858 See my previous response right above.
