Catherine, the youngest of 24 children, received a vision of Jesus along with Saints Peter, Paul, and John. Jesus blessed her and she dedicated herself to him, refusing arranged marriages. As an adult she was sought out as a spiritual director and gained a group of followers. It was during the Great Schism of Christianity in 1378 that she offered herself as a sacrifice for the Roman Church.
