St Catherine Of Siena Feast Day
Saint Catherine of Siena feast day is April 29th. She is the patron saint of fire prevention. She was born 1347 and died 1380. She set up a monastery for only women in 1377. She decided she did not want to enter a Convent (a community of persons devoted to religious life under a superior) but instead she entered the Third Order of St.Dominic. She always cared for others and gave stuff away to others who were in need. Her mission was to serve the poor and the sick. I selected this saint because she cared and helped those in need and that is what we need to do in everyday life. We should always help others because sometimes they do not get the best support from home, and they need it in school or wherever else they go. I also picked this saint
