Description

St. M Monica was born in northern Africa in 331, in the town of Thagaste, to a wealthy family with strong Christian traditions. She Learned The Teachings of Sacred Scripture With Great Devotion. Prayer and assiduous practice of the sacraments forged her interiority, and she was active in the service of the Church community. She married Patricius, an ambitious, irascible pagan who was unfaithful to her. Gentle, benevolent, and capable of finding the right moment in dialogue, with her “method” of waiting, patience and prayer - which she suggested to friends who confided in her their own problems and misunderstandings with their spouses - succeeded in winning over her husband and leading him to the faith.
