Saint Powers, Activate!

In the spirit of our gender unit, I want each of you to discover a new saint.  There are hundreds of wonderful women who have been sainted, choose one about whom you know very little.  Discover the truth and beauty of the saint and explain how her life is still important, and relevant in our current world.
