"Janua Coeli"


During the last years of her life and during her last illness, St. Elizabeth often referred to Mary as “Janua Coeli” (Gate of Heaven).  

She was seen often in the presence of the statue of the Virgin of Lourdes.

Elizabeth carried this statue with her almost continuously – even when she was absent from the infirmary.
