Saint Seraphina

Seraphina was born in Tuscany, Italy in 1238 and she came from a poor family and lost her father when she was young. As a child and woman, she avoided all conversation that would be a cause of sin. She worked in the home spinning, sewing and praying through the night. Seraphina had a lifelong condition which made movement painful and had to be carried everywhere on a board. She lived her life under Benedictine Rule and was devoted to Saint Gregory the Great who suffered with the same condition. Seraphina was both kind-hearted and devoted.

Saint Seraphina’s Feast Day is 12^th March, which we celebrate by sharing food with fellow Seraphinians here at St Claudine’s.

Saint Seraphina’s Prayer is as follows: Dear St Seraphina, Thank you for bringing us together as one family. You have taught us to be brave, kind-hearted and determined. Help us to achieve our full potential in everything that we do for our house and wider community. May you continue to surround us with the love of Jesus. Amen
