All Lives Matter - The Story of Blessed Margaret of Castello by Muriel Delany

This week on From the Housetops, we explore the remarkable life of Blessed Margaret of Castello, a profound patroness for our times. Born with severe disabilities in 1270 to noble parents, Margaret faced rejection and cruelty from those who should have loved her most. Hidden away in isolation for years, she endured suffering with unwavering faith, joy, and purity, embracing God’s purpose for her life.

Despite being abandoned, Margaret’s trust in God never wavered. She found strength in prayer and became a beacon of love and holiness. Her story is a testimony to the dignity of every soul and the power of faith to transform suffering into sanctity. In a world where life is often devalued based on convenience or perfection, Margaret’s life reminds us that every child is a gift from God, worthy of love and protection.

“...and that which you hear in the ear, preach ye from the housetops.” Matthew 10:27
