Cabrini is the first biopic about the Patron Saint of Immigrants
Francesca Cabrini was born in northern Italy in 1850. She and six of her Missionary Sisters set off for New York City in 1889.
Cabrini had aquaphobia. Cabrini nearly drowned as a child, which spurred her fear of water. However, she overcame it as an adult when she made 23 transatlantic trips to do missionary work around the world
Mother Cabrini became a naturalized citizen in Seattle Washington on October 9, 1909
She was canonized in 1946 by Pope Pius XII and became the first American citizen to be named a saint.
Four years later Cabrini was given the title of Patroness of Immigrants.
She died in Chicago on December 22, 1917 at the age of 67 of chronic endocarditis.
Over the course of 34 years she established an astonishing 67 hospitals, orphanages, and schools. Her energy was fueled by an intense focus on serving Jesus in whatever he asked of her and her legacy still stands today.
