                             SAINT OF THE DAY – SAINT GEMMA GALGANI
Gemma was born in Borgo Nuovo di Camigliano, near Lucca, in the Tuscany region of Italy in 1873. Her mother died when she
was eight and, in 1897, when her father died, she went to live with Cecilia Giannini, who treated her like an adopted daughter.
Gianna wanted to join the Passionist Sisters, but was prevented from doing so by her poor health. She had suffered from a
number of illnesses since childhood, including tuberculosis of the spine. She was said to have been cured a&er appari!ons of
Saint Gabriel Possen!, a Passionist brother to whom Gemma had a par!cular devo!on and who died when he was only twenty-
four from tuberculosis. Another account a'ributes the cure to an appari!on of Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque.
Gemma is known to the world largely from over 230 le'ers of hers, published in 1940, to her spiritual director and confessor.
She was an honest and pious young woman, generous in her response to God’s love, humble and obedient to her spiritual
director, and willing to suffer everything in imita!on of Christ’s passion. For about a year and a half, she regularly had on her
body the s!gmata—signs of Christ’s wounds—between Thursday evening and Friday a&ernoon. She also went into ecstasies and
was heard talking to people in her visions. Her le'ers reveal her as level-headed and habitually calm and peaceful. Toward the
end of her life, she seems to have had a constant awareness of God’s presence.
Eventually, her illness returned. She died, a&er a long period of physical suffering, on April 11, 1903. She was twenty-five years
old. Saint Gemma Galgani, pray for us! (Excerpted and adapted with permission of the Publisher from Butler’s Lives of the Saints,
