Saints and Other Powerful Women in the Church

They write about these women in their simple and engaging style, which has placed them among the most popular Catholic writers of the day.
Each of these 10 Roman Cathollic Female Saints are Role Models for the faithful of today. Read how they suffered rejection by their peers, discrimination because of sex, and how they rose above all of it to become movers and shakers of the world. There is a common thread, which gave them the strength to go on when others would have backed down -their devotion to the Holy Eucharist and Mother Mary and an unbending commitment to their vows, most especially that of obedience.
