Ian Pinto’s Reviews > St. Alphonsa: A Woman of the Beatitudes > Status Update

The book takes an interesting approach to explore the life of St. Alphonsa, India's first woman saint. It uses the foundation of the beatitudes to expose the spirituality of St. Alphonsa. While this is a hagiography more than a biography, it contains numerous references to various biographies of the saint and connections to the life of Francis of Assisi, Clare of Assisi and Therese of Child Jesus.
