The life of Blessed Gianna Beretta Molla underscores that sainthood was never meant to be seen in romantic terms. Being one of God's 'blessed ones' takes heroic fidelity to living God's laws - and that is the person we meet on these pages.
Gianna had a great commitment to her faith, a very active spiritual life of prayer and work. Her love and concern for the well being of others led her to choose medicine as her life's work and mission.
Her most important choice, because of her deep love for life, was motherhood. With her fourth pregnancy. Gianna faced the most momentous choice a person can ever confront: giving up her own life so that another can live.
This is her story.
