Introduces readers to the first American born saint and leads them to a place of peace and prayer that reflects the spirituality of Saint Elizabeth.Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Elizabeth Bayley was born of a well to do Family| in 1774 and baptized in the Episcopal Church. After the death of her husband, William Magee Seton and her subsequent conversion to Catholicism, Elizabeth was no longer accepted in her previous social and Family| circles, leaving her a poor widow with five young children. At the invitation of Bishop Carroll, Elizabeth relocated her Family| to Baltimore, where she founded a school. She was soon joined by other women and formed the Daughters of Charity of Saint Joseph, serving as the first superior of that order.
