BLESSED ELIZABETH ANN SETON Elizabeth Bayley Seton has been described as a ''jewel in the crown of American Catholicism. She was a New Yorker born and bred, and when our great Republic was born, she became a charter American citizen. His Eminence, Francis Cardinal Spellman, has done much to hasten the cause of the beatification of this lovely woman and when he described her as belonging wholeheartedly to America and whole- heartedly to God he was unwittingly describing himself. In her short span of 47 years, Elizabeth Seton was a society belle and matron, a wife and the mother of five children, and finally a religious foundress. She had been a good Protestant, and after the death of her husband in Italy where they had gone for his health, she became an exceptionally holy Roman Catholic. Her involvements were so varied and widespread that Blessed Elizabeth Ann Seton is an exemplar for every Catholic woman. She displayed a great capacity for friendship and a deep emotional and affectionate nature. In an age when family life has lost much of its attractiveness, she is a charming illustration of a devoted daughter, a solicitous wife, a deeply spiritual mother. Even as a Protestant, Elizabeth and her sister-in-law Rebecca were so good to the poor that they were called Protestant Sisters of Charity. And while Elizabeth was still a Protestant they would go from Church to Church on Sundays to receive the sacrament. Both these char- acteristics, love of the poor and devotion to the Eucharist, characterized the convert to Catholicism, and led her to the heights of holiness. To Mother Seton the Catholic Church in America is indebted for the first native community of religious women, the first American free Catholic day school, precursor of the parochial school, and the first Catholic Orphanage. With involvements so great and commit- ments so forceful, she is surely one of the great glories of the Church in America, and we should all be bursting with pride that this warm and wonderful little woman was not only an American, but a Catholic as well, and that our own Sisters here at the Mount are the worthy daughters of BLESSED ELIZABETH ANN SETON . . .
