When Fina was quite young, her father died, and the child was stricken with a strange disease. She became paralyzed and had to be carried about on a makeshift board pallet. Her mother could not attend her well, as she had to go out to do what odd jobs she could find or to beg for scraps when there was no work.
Little Fina realized she was being called to unite her sufferings with those of Christ. She offered her neglect, the festering bedsores on her body, her immobility, constant pain and mortification all to the Lord.
As well as she could she strove to follow the Rule of St. She learned of St Gregory the Great and greatly admired this saint, striving to emulate him in his patient endurance of suffering.
Shortly, her mother died as well, and Seraphina was truly alone, except for her Lord. Note Card. Ladies T-Shirt. Desk Framed Art. Note Card - Custom Text. Youth and Toddler T-Shirt.
