Chiquitunga Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 What St. Gemma wore (every day) really resembled the Passionist habit, especially with the black mantle. She's so amazing.... http://www.stgemmagalgani.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarysLittleFlower Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 (edited) there's so much purity in her eyes! It's amazing to think that she saw and conversed with Our Lord and Mother Mary, and her Guardian Angel, St Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows, etc. When reading about her it also shows how the Saints saw the world so differently.

OnlySunshine Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I love St. Gemma Galgani. She is someone I really look up to because I feel like I have much in common with her, especially health troubles and not being able to enter religious life (at least right now). I love looking at her pictures. Her eyes are beautiful! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarysLittleFlower Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I find that she inspires me and has the virtues that I lack. Whenever I read about her I want to live a better more holy life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnlySunshine Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I didn't know there are Passionist nuns in the Philippines. Are they the only community who wear the white habit? I imagine so since it is a tropical climate there. I honestly cannot think of any communities who wear a dark habit in the Phillipines. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
