Powerful and inspiring, well read and produced.

An amazing story about an amazing woman whom God choose for an important work in Sweden and the entire Church. The reader should expect to be awed and entertained as this well read book inspires them to greater belief that they too are called to be an instrument of God grace in this world.
- Fr. Mark Ivany

Amazing Saint

What a life this saint had. Mystic, visions, bi-location, walked on water, healings…the whole gamut!

The narration was acceptable. I would probably would have struggled to read it otherwise. Thanks to been on audible I was able to listen to the he whole
Story almost in one sitting.

Reassuring

Listening to this wonderful story of a remarkable woman is like spending a few hours meditating. The narrator's voice is confident and very soothing as she unfolds the story of the life of an incredible woman! More of us should read, listen and learn about the Saints. We need more good and uplifting TRUE stories in this modern world to heal our souls. I found this listen to be a wonderful escape on a Sunday afternoon.
