Saint Frances was born in 1384 to a wealthy family. She desperately wanted to join the religious life at a young age but her father insisted she marry. After much arguing, praying and lots of distress, Saint Frances was married. After being married she had two sons and a daughter and ran her house with easy and grace.
During that time, the plague went through Rome and killed her second son. She saw the people suffering and had such empathy for them. So she took all she had, sold I and gave it to the poor. She gave so much that her and her husband ended up needing to knock on doors and beg. Later on her daughter died. She decided to open part of her home like a hospital. She was set on helping and caring for the poor and sick that she started a group women who were dedicated to helping the poor. That is the way she spent her entire life.
