Information About

Christina Of Markyate




Her religious life began when she escaped marriage and ran away from her family's house to live with a local hermit. In his cell she lived in hiding for four years in a closet that measured about 14 inches (a span and a half) on a side, in which she fasted, meditated, and experienced visions of Jesus Christ . After these four years, her husband freed her from her marital obligations, and she was able to participate in regular monastic life.
