Saint Hyacintha of Mariscotti (1585 – 1640 ) was a religious of the Third Order of St. Francis and foundress of the Sacconi. At length she was touched by God’s grace, and the earnest exhortations of her confessor at the time of serious illness made her see the folly of the past and brought about a complete change in her life. She made a public confession of her faults in the refectory, discarded her costly garments, wore an old habit, went barefoot, frequently fasted on bread and water, chastised her body by vigils and severe scourging, and practised mortifications to such an extent that the decree of canonization considers the preservation of her life a continued miracle.

Hebrews 11:32-40 // Psalms 31:20-24 // Mark 5:1-20
