Sisterhood of Saints: Elizabeth Ann Seton
Elizabeth Ann and William Magee had a busy, beautiful life together in Lower Manhattan. They cohosted a party for George Washington’s sixty-fifth birthday. They lived next door to Alexander Hamilton. They were stalwarts of the Episcopal church, and set a good example for their children in their charitable activities.
Saint Teresa of Avila on Righteousness
“May God give you fortitude so that you remain steadfast in righteousness, even if you find yourself surrounded by great danger. Blessed are trials when, however heavy, they do not make one turn aside in the least from righteousness.”
— from the book Blessed Are You: Finding Inspiration from Our Sisters in Faith
