Show Notes

Blessed Imelda Lambertini named the Protectress of First Holy Communicants by Pope St. Pius X, . 

When the Mass ended, the sisters proceeded to leave the Church. Imelda stayed behind to continue praying. The sisters turned to call Imelda.

What they saw astonished them. A bright white Host appeared above the head of Imelda, and remained suspended in air. They immediately called the priest. Upon witnessing what had happened, the priest took a paten, and went to where Imelda was kneeling. The bright Host, still suspended over her head, descended onto the Paten. The priest took this as a sign that Imelda was to be given her First Holy Communion. He administered the Lord to her. She swooned, and went into an ecstacy, from which she never returned.

She died that same day.

Thus, her first Communion was also to be her last. The date was May 12, 1333.
