St. Scholastica

Saint Scholastica is the patron of nuns, convulsive children, and Le Mans, France. She is the twin sister to Saint Benedict of Nursia. St. Scholastica, as a nun, led a group of women at Plombariola near Montecassino. She is well-known for praying to God to keep her brother with her overnight and passing the next morning as St. Benedict saw her soul leaving her body in the form of a dove. Her feast day is February 10.
