    saint irmina is my family saint in a catholic school the sisters of mary school. And i just read her life and open my mind that despite of the riches they have they still have the love of God and the guidance of the holy spirit.

    St. Irmina and St. Adela, wonderful siblings of royal blood, just look at the life of selfless service you chose in the face of worldly honour and pleasure. Hence today the Catholic church remembers you. Any earthly choices would not have led to such eternal remembrance. Help us dear sisters, to keep our eyes on heaven always. Amen.
