Patronage Television, Simplicity
& Persistence
Feast Day August 11
Towards the end of her life, Claire grew too ill to attend the Catholic mass. In her sick bed, she had a vision of the mass happening in real time. Claire also, from her sick bed, defended her convent from marauders. She took the monstrance with the Eucharist Host, and sang Psalm 9, "I will praise you, Lord with all my heart." They fled.

Saint Claire, intercede to the Holy Ghost that I may be persistent when adversity befalls me, that if I'm right, my opposers will eventually yield.
