A Person You Need to Know

Blessed Elena Guerra is going to be canonized this October!!

The Arise Easter Devotional that was released 5 years ago featured this Saint-to-be and I'm so excited for her to be recognized a canonized Saint. 

If you don't know her, let me introduce her to you:

🌟Blessed Elena Guerra🌟

Also known as the “Apostle of the Holy Spirit”🔥Blessed Elena was totally devoted to sharing her love of the Holy Spirit and teaching others to invoke the Holy Spirit in their everyday lives.

I first met Blessed Elena Guerra when I was on a mission trip in the Amazon in 2015. The people there had a very strong devotion to this 19th century mystic who founded an order called the Oblates of the Holy Spirit.

She had a huge influence on the Pope of her time and was the teacher of another saint, Saint Gemma Galgani.

She has had a profound impact on my life and I’m looking forward to sharing more about her leading up to her canonization on October 20, 2024. 🙌
