First US Citizen to Be Canonized

Today’s Saint of the Day, St Frances Xavier Cabrini, from AmericanCathlic.org:

At her canonization on July 7, 1946, Pius XII said, “Although her constitution was very frail, her spirit was endowed with such singular strength that, knowing the will of God in her regard, she permitted nothing to impede her from accomplishing what seemed beyond the strength of a woman.”
