Special Mass In the I.C.C. Chapel Where St. Catherine of Siena Relic is housed in Chapel Alter

Prayers will be offered for everyone suffering from illness and disease. St Catherine's compassionate care for the afflicted cemented her role as a protector of those suffering from illness.

The value Catherine makes central in her short life and which sounds clearly and consistently through her experience is complete surrender to Christ. What is most impressive about her is that she learns to view her surrender to her Lord as a goal to be reached through time. An active public apostolate grew out of her contemplative life. Her letters, mostly for spiritual instruction and encouragement of her followers, began to take more and more note of public affairs.

 In 1939, she and Francis of Assisi were declared co-patrons of Italy. Pope Paul VI named her and Teresa of Avila doctors of the Church in 1970. Her spiritual testament is found in The Dialogue.

Died on April 29, 1380, at the age of 33.
