The Nun

About this book

This complete story is the story of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque whose life was extraordinarily unhappy with magnificently happy consequences. From the time she was a little girl until her holy death, Margaret Mary was mistreated and humiliated, misunderstood and disbelieved. Home life on the family farm was dreadful and life in the convent at Paray was almost as bad. But Margaret Mary had but one goal and meant it completely when she said" I want to be a nun solely for the love of God." The author has uncovered many little known facts about this nun who was responsible for the devotion to the the Sacred Heart. (Chris Fletcher, August 1, 2009, Amazon.com)
