Born a princess in exile and raised among the piety of the Hungarian court, Margaret of Scotland became one of the most influential Christian queens in medieval Europe. Through holiness of life, deep Scriptural devotion, and quiet but firm reform, she transformed her household, her husband, and ultimately the nation.

My idea of a saint was old Mrs Walko, who cleaned the church every week and slipped me a quarter after Sunday night service. Or Sister Charlotte, a Polish lady who spoke little English and littel at all but when the Spirit moved her would cry ogut, "Hallelujah! Hallelujah!! HALLELUJAH!!" at the top of her voice. Then there was Brother George Holadnak who made BRRRRinngg sounds like an airplane and later dropped $5000 in the collection plate.
