Saint Christine is the name that my mom an dad chose for me as my middle name. i'm very proud of what Saint Christine did. She had such a strong faith, and thats what I love about her.
This is awesome!
I cannot believe what happened to her just because of her faith, I feel pain for her. I am very glad that i chose her as my confirmation saint.... she will always be in my thoughts.
