St. Rose of Lima Our Saint Today Is the First Canonized in the New World St. Rose of Lima Our saint today is the first canonized in the New World. She has all the marks of a saint: suffering, opposition, piety, and great love. St. Rose was born in 1586 in Lima, Peru to Spanish colonists. She was named Isabel Flores de Olivia. An exceptionally beautiful child, she was given the nickname “Rose,” the name is known as today. Sometimes the saints do things that strike us as extremely bizarre. Given Rose’s beauty began to attract suitors, she marred her face by rubbing it with pepper to make it blister and cropped her hair short. Later, she wore a thick circlet of silver on her head with flowers on the outside and studded on the inside. In Rose’s mind, anything that might endanger her relationship with God had to be rooted out. Rose wanted to be a nun from an early age. However, her parents opposed her desire to enter the convent. Rose and her parents battled for ten years over her vocation. During this time, she lived a life of penance. For example, she quit eating meat altogether, an extreme dietary restriction for that time. Additionally, she kept herself cloistered in her room and spent long periods of time in prayer. It was said she slept only two hours per night so as to have more time for prayer. She went to daily Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and took daily communion. During the last few years of her life, Rose set up a room in the house where she cared for homeless children, the elderly, and the sick. When she died at age 31, the city turned out for her funeral. Pope Clement IX beatified Rose in 1667, and Pope Clement X canonized her in 1671. Certainly some saints have done some unusual practices, but it’s helpful to remember that they choose to do so out of their love for God. They were willing to suffer ridicule, opposition, and suffering so that Christ’s power and love shined through them. St. Rose is the patroness of embroiderers, gardeners, florists, those who suffer ridicule for their piety, and people who suffer family problems. May we be inspired by our saint today to live more devoutly and courageously for Christ! St. Rose of Lima, pray for us! .

Burton’s words invoke the gallery of maps Pope Alexander VII assembled in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome in 1665 and animate Sutton Nicholls’s ink-and-wash drawing of Samuel Pepys’s library in London in 1693 (Fig. 1).2 There, in a room lined with bookcases and portraits, a map stands out, mounted on canvas and sus- pended from two cords; it is Giovanni Battista Falda’s view of Rome, published in 1676.
