Making a List and Checking it Twice – For Saint Therese of Corcoran

In February, we love to retell the story of Gregory the Great's story about Benedict and Scholastica's last visit together (Benedict and Scholastica’s last visit together). The twins had a yearly custom of gathering together in a small house at the bottom of a mountain between their monasteries. After visiting and sharing stories together all day, it grew dark. Scholastica wanted to continue visiting with her beloved brother all night, but Benedict rejected her request, for it was unacceptable to be away from his monastery overnight.
