History
Saint Ingrid was raised to be a devout Christian. She
was the first Swedish woman to become a Dominican nun, forming the first
Dominican cloister in her country. After she died, people would pray for her
intercession, and miracles occurred at her tomb, so the Swedish Bishops asked
the Holy See to canonize her as a saint.
Activity:
Saint Ingrid lived a quiet, holy life as a nun, so we
don’t know much about her other than the fact that her prayers were answered by
God. Today, watch a classic movie, The
Bells of Saint Mary, starring another famous Swedish woman named Ingrid,
Ingrid Bergman.
