Pew Pew Pew - St. Catherine of Sienna Surrenders!

In a similar vein to two of our most popular LOLSaints of all time: Lazer Wounds and PEW PEW PEW x2.

St. Catherine was born in Siena, and did indeed surrender herself to God!

She was born in Italy in 1347. At the age of 7 she consecrated her virginity to Christ and lived a life of prayer, fasting and penance as a Sister of Penance of St Dominic in 1363. After 3 years of visions and mystical experiences, she rejoined her family and tended the the sick and poor.

She lived for long intervals on practically no food save the Blessed Sacrament, and was always radiantly happy despite sufferings and pain.

During the summer of 1370 she received a series of special vision of Divine Mysteries after which sha had an active public ministry.

Of course, there's much more to her life than I can fit in an LOLSaints blurb. You can find out more about her at:
