Episode Synopsis

7/2/25 - Blessed Elizabeth Canori Mora (1774–1825) was a Roman wife, mother, and mystic who turned personal suffering into profound holiness. Trapped in a difficult marriage marked by her husband's infidelity, abuse, and financial ruin, Elizabeth remained steadfast in her faith, raising two daughters while working as a maid and caring for the poor. After a miraculous healing in 1801, she began receiving mystical visions of Christ and the Virgin Mary, and joined the Third Order of the Most Holy Trinity. Despite enduring poverty and abandonment, she prayed constantly for her husband's conversion, a prayer answered after her death when he became a Franciscan priest. Beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1994, Elizabeth's life is a powerful testament to forgiveness, fidelity, and redemptive suffering.
