She founded a new order of nuns, the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart, to teach the Faith and work with the poor in the United States. She was a tireless missionary who crossed the ocean 37 times to expand her order across the world to France, England, Spain, to Central and South America, and to the United States from coast to coast, where she died in 1917, a saint of our time.
