Catherine St CatherineSt. Catherine of Genoa was born of notable ancestry in 1447 at Genoa, Italy. Although she desired to enter the religious life at the age of thirteen, her parents arranged her marriage to Giuliano Adorno three years later. After experiencing a mystica conversion, she began to lovingly serve the patients of a local hospital with her also newly-converted husband. Catherine died on the fifteenth of September, 1510, and was canonized by Pope Clement XII in 1737. Her Spiritual Doctrine was compiled by Don Catteneo Marabotto, who served as her confessor. The work was printed by TAN in 1989 and again in 2010.
