\nPostulator for the Cause of Alexia<\/strong>
\n\u201cIn one of the hospitals, a religious woman seeing how well Alexia conducted herself said; 'Alexia, how brave you are!' And she answered; 'No, Sister Patro, it's just that God helps me.'\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
\nPostulator for the Cause of Alexia<\/strong>
\n\u201cMany people in the hospital visited her asking her to pray for their intentions. In the end, there were so many intentions that she wrote them all and had them in an envelope. After receiving Communion she would hold the envelope tight to herself praying for those intentions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\n\u201cIt's nice that the Pope has approved this decree along with other decrees a few months before the Synod of Bishops that will be held in October. This is because it shows young people that they can be saints. Of the other three decrees, two are from Italy, one 23 and another15 years old.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
