Readings
Her life shows us that seemingly small things can be very important in God's eyes. From the human viewpoint this sister was not a "star" in the limelight, but her silent work was a ray of light to many people that is still shining today.

-Pope John Paul II during the beatification ceremony for Blessed Maria
