PATRON OF THE UNWANTED ~ Blessed Margaret

Blessed Margaret of Castello, was born blind, hunchback and one leg shorter than the other. Her noble parents were ashamed of her, locked her up for years in a cell in the forest, then abandoned her in the city of Castello, Italy where she became a beggar in order to survive. Later she was taken in by a family, became a Dominican then went out to help people in prison, and the unwanted. Click here to find more about Blessed Margaret. Pray for all those who are unwanted in this world that they might find hope.
