Bl. Juliana of Norwich
1342 - 1416
Benedictine English mystic, sometimes called Julian. She was a recluse of Norwich, living outside the walls of St. Julian’s Church. In 1373, she experienced sixteen revelations. Her book, Revelations of Divine Love - a work on the love of God, the Incarnation, redemption, and divine consolation - made her one of the most important writers of England. She wrote on sin, penance, and other aspects of the spiritual life, attracting people from all across Europe. She is called Blessed, although she was never formally beatified.

I love Julian, she is one of the most inspiring writers/theologians I have ever read! I agree with Br. Paul, when will Julian finally get the formal recognition she so richly deserves??
Blessed Julian's "Showings" has changed my life. Here, the Divine Mercy of God is proclaimed in a time ravaged by war, plague, and politic strife. I pray that one day Julian will be officially recognized by the Church as the great theologian and mystic that she was.
