Blessed Margaret Castello, by Fr. W.R. Bonniwell,was born hunchback, midget, blind, lame, and ugly. Her parents walled her up in a chapel and after 14 years took her for a cure.Nothing happened, so her parents abandoned her. When she died at the age of 33, the towns people thronged to her funeral and demanded that the saint be buried in a tomb inside the church. The priest protested, but when a crippled girl was miraculously cured at the funeral, the people had their way. This is the story of Blessed Margaret, as taken from the earliest biography about her written in 1325 and then another written in 1335. An account told by those who knew her. Blessed Margaret's story is one of the most moving stories ever. Her body is still incorrupt.

Novena Prayer to Blessed Margaret:
O God, by whose will the blessed
virgin Margaret was blind from birth;
that the eyes of her mind being
inwardly enlightened she might think
without ceasing on You alone, be
the light of our eyes, that we may
be able to flee the shadows of this
world, and reach the home of never-
ending light. We ask this through
Christ, our Lord.
Our Father. Hail Mary. Glory be to
the Father.
