Saint Bridget of Sweden: The Miraculous Vision and the Transformed Crucifix.

One powerful miracle attributed to Saint Bridget of Sweden, also known as Birgitta of Vadstena, involves the crucifix at the Church of St. Paul in Rome. According to the story, Saint Bridget was praying before a crucifix in the church when she experienced a vision. During this vision, she saw Christ on the cross, covered in blood and wounds, and heard Him speak to her about His passion and suffering.

Afterward, when Saint Bridget relayed her experience, the people around her were astonished to see that the crucifix had miraculously transformed. Instead of the usual sculpted image of Christ, it now bore the marks of Christ's wounds and was stained with blood, just as Saint Bridget had seen in her vision.

This miraculous crucifix remains on display at the Church of St. Paul in Rome, offering a tangible reminder of Saint Bridget's powerful encounter with Christ and her commitment to sharing His message of love and mercy.

As we reflect on the powerful miracle of Saint Bridget of Sweden and her unwavering faith, let us also remember to lift up our own intentions and the needs of our God of Armies prayer community.
