“If you really want to love Jesus, first learn to suffer, because suffering teaches you to love.” —St. Gemma Galgani
St. Gemma’s deep love of Christ and great communion with His passion left her somewhat misunderstood. Though her poor health prevented her from entering any religious orders, her suffering united her to Jesus in a profound way. St. Gemma’s portrait by Fr. Barry Braum is a great blessing in the home, reminding us to unite our daily sufferings to Christ’s Passion.
