Hi Kerri, I first found her through reading a page about her grandmother, Macrina the Elder, in a child's saint book. I am a notorious rabbit holer and I just went looking for her all over the internet and pieced her life together. She is a beautiful saint! I have one daughter so I was tickled that Macrina had all brothers (and WHAT brothers!) surrounding her. She is known as Macrina the Younger, to differentiate her from her Grandmother.
Thanks for this lovely piece. Could you share some sources to read more about her?

Thanks for sharing! Maybe someday you can write a book about her and other lesser known saints :)
