Patron Saint: Sick People
Memorial: February 26th
Also Known as: St. Isabella of France
Died: 1270 AD of Natural Causes
Beautified: 1520
Canonized: Pending
Why she is venerated by the Holy Roman Catholic Church:
Holy See Confirmed Stigmatic, Mystic, Visionary and Ecstatic
Stigmatic and Mystic: Suffered all the wounds of Our Lord Jesus Christ during the Crucifixion
The Mystical Crown of Thorns actually grew out of her head
Visionary: Had dozens of visions of the Blessed Saints throughout her life
Ecstacy: Very deep visions of Jesus Christ and the Passion, so intense that she nearly killed herself
Though many of her Ecstacy Visions were quite painful, toward the end of her life they were quite pleasant. These pleasant visions related to Heaven and the Risen Christ
