Who is St. Rose of Lima?
St. Rose of Lima was a young woman who was on fire with love for the Lord. The first saint canonized in the Americas was born in 1586 as Isabel Flores de Oliva. She was nicknamed Rose as a baby, because a servant claimed to have seen her face transform into a rose! The name “Rose” also fit her great beauty.
