Mother Maddalena holds up Saint Baptista as an example to all Poor Clares: B. Baptista Varani, Virgin, born 1458, died 1527; her veneration was approved by Pope Gregory XVI, in 1843 May the illustrious example of this holy Virgin, together with the other faithful followers of the glorious Virgin S. Clare, whose names are inscribed in the Book of Life, encourage us in our present struggles here below, and may we experience the benefit of their powerful intercession before the throne of the Most High!
