Saints Rose of Viterbo and Colette Boylet
Saint Rose of Viterbo (Italy, 1234) wanted to enter the Poor Clares at a very young age, but could not because of her age and poverty. A serious illness facilitated her rapid entry into the Third Order of St. Francis, according to the Franciscan Directory. When she recovered her health, she lived a life of prayer and penance, exhorting the love of Jesus and Mary, and fidelity to the Church. God granted him extraordinary charisms and through them he worked miracles. He died in 1252. In 1258 her incorrupt body was transferred to the Poor Clare monastery.
Saint Colette Boylet (Corbie, France, 1381), orphaned at the age of 18, distributed her possessions among the poor and undertook a varied religious experience that included wearing the habit of the Third Order and leading an eremitical life, until she professed in the Poor Clares. She wanted to bring back to the Order the spirit and observance of Santa Clara. With pontifical authorization, reformed monasteries and founded others. He died in Ghent (Belgium) in 1447.
