Feast of St Colette 7th Feb

7th February, 2010

Colette was a founder and reformer. She began her reform in the time of the Great Western Schism (1378-1417) when three men claimed to be pope and thus divided Western Christianity. The 15th centuary in general was a very difficult one for the Western Church. Colette re-instituted the primative Rule of St Clare in the 17 monasteries that she established.
