2. St. Lucy – It is said that St. Lucy was known for her beautiful eyes, but it is her zeal for the Lord that has made her a Saint.

4. St. Germaine Cousin – St. Germaine was born with a deformed and paralyzed right hand and was also very weak and often ill. That did not stop her from glorifying God.
