1628 MIRACLES 1^ed Saint Colette PROPHECY Colettine Nuns French Monastics Silvere

 

Colette of Corbie, or Saint Colette, was a 15^th-century French nun who is best known for her intents on helping poor and needy mothers and children. In the 17^th-century French historian Claude Silvere published a thorough account of Saint Colette’s life, prophecies, and her miraculous deeds. One interesting account is of Colette’s prophecy at Bourge Convent, where a sister would fall under a cart and be unharmed. Silvere also describes Colette’s help in providing the nuns in Nièvre with food during a famine.
