Blending courage with charity, Catherine of Siena models the radical pursuit of God - even at the cost of the esteem of the world. Catherine, a mystic, received the stigmata, but is also remembered for a major political achievement: through her intervention, she fought to return the papacy to Rome from Avignon, France. Catherine’s complete trust in God led her to act to restore the papacy to its rightful place at the head of the Church, instead of being merely a political position.
