Bl. Jane of Aza
Feast Day: August 2
Blessed Jane was born of the prominent d’Aza family and married Felix de Guzman. Three of their children spent their lives in the service of the Church: Anthony, Mannes and Dominic.
An early source describes her as “virtuous, chaste, prudent, and full of compassion for the poor and the afflicted; among all the women of the region she was outstanding for her good reputation.”
She died at Caleruega, Spain, at the beginning of the thirteenth century.
