The Incorruptibles
Author: Joan Carroll Cruz
Publisher: TAN Books
ISBN: 0895559536
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 880
Book Description
Continuously popular since it first appeared in 1977, The Incorruptibles remains the acknowledged classic on the bodies of Saints that did not undergo decomposition after death, many remaining fresh and flexible for years, or even centuries. After explaining both natural and artificial mummification, the author shows that the incorruption of the Saints bodies fits into neither category but constitutes a much greater phenomenon which is unexplained by modern science even to this day. The author presents 102 canonized Saints, Beati and Venerables, summarizing their lives, the discovery of their incorruption and investigations by Church and medical authorities. The incorruptible bodies of saints are a consoling sign of Christ's victory over death, a confirmation of the dogma of the Resurrection of the Body, a sign that the Saints are still with us in the Mystical Body of Christ, as well as a proof of the truth of the Catholic Faith for only in the Catholic Church do we find this phenomenon.

Relive with us the story of this great Saint of the Impossible. Visit her birthplace in Roccaporena, and Cascia where she lived. View and venerate her incorrupt body. See the miraculous bees that were part of her life. Go to the convent in Cascia where she lived and witness her life in the Cloister. See her miraculous entry into the community and the Cross from which she received the Stigmata, a thorn in her head. She was the only daughter of a mother and father who feared for her well-being. They married her to a young man who was completely opposite from her. He lived a life of sin, drinking and carousing with other women. She prayed for him, until he finally repented. He was killed by his ex-comrades. His children vowed vengeance on them. St. Rita prayed that before they committed this act of murder against those who had killed her husband, the Lord would take them. She stayed by the bedside of both boys as they died. Then, after much struggle, she entered the convent at an advanced age. She is the Saint of the Impossible. Pray for her intercession.
