Saint Jane De Chantal Earrings

• Jane Frances was born in Dijon, France on 28 January 1572. The mother of six children (three died shortly after they were born), she was widowed at the age of 28. She met Saint Francis de Sales when he preached at the Sainte Chapelle in Dijon. She was inspired to start a religious order for women, the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary with his support, an order for women who were rejected by other orders because of poor health or age. When people criticized her, she famously said, "What do you want me to do? I like sick people myself; I'm on their side." She died on 13 December 1641 at the age of 69, at the Visitation Convent in Moulins, one of those she founded, and was buried in Annecy. Traditionalist Catholics who continue to observe pre-1970 calendars celebrate Saint Jane Frances on the 1769- 1969 date of 21 August.
