New Release: Short Story Featuring Saint Jeanne Jugan
Today is the feast day of Catholic Saint Jeanne Jugan. She founded the Little Sisters of the Poor , a Catholic order which cares for the elderly. Although Jeanne Jugan has been dead for almost a century and a half her influence and inspirational life continues to reach ours today.
I first learned about her when I was researching family history. She's on a teeter-y, totter-y side-branch. Her great-great grandfather, Nicolas Joucquan of Hirel, Brittany, was my 12th great-grandfather.
If you would like a quick visual overview of her life you should watch the wonderful 11-min. animated The Story of Jeanne Jugan.
