Cure of Ars

STEPHANA de Quinzanis



:D:

Born to pious parents; her father became a Dominican tertiary while Stephana was very young. Taught her catechism by the stigmatic Blessed Matthew Carrieri who lived at the nearby Dominican convent; though she was too small to understand, he told her that she was to be his spiritual heiress. Began receiving visions of Dominican saints from age seven, at which point she made vows of poverty, chastity and obedience.

Carrieri died when Stephana was 14; soon after he appeared to her in a vision, and she received the stigmata.

Dominican tertiary at Soncino at age 15. Devoted to caring for the poor and sick. Founded a community of Third Order sisters in Soncino, and became its first abbess. Her counsel was sought by many including Saint Angela Merici, Blessed Augustine of Biella, and Blessed Osanna of Mantua.

Though he had no formal theological training, she could discuss mystical theology at the most profound level. Could read the hearts and minds of the people around her. Had the gift of prophesy. Could perform miraculous healings. Lived in a nearly continuous fast, and inflicted severe penances on herself. Accurately predicted the date of her own death.
Born
Soncino, Italy
Died
2 January 1530 of natural causes
Beatified
1740 by Pope Benedict XIV (cultus confirmed)
