Is it possible to be a good volleyball player and ascend the heights of holiness? Probably yes, and a Cagliari's girl died of cancer in 1984 could be the example.

A saint among us

Simona canonised. Is the idea launched by Father Daniel Ange that could open the 'Diocesan Inquiry'. So many are hoping. And Simona Tronci could be the first saint of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal.

Deeply in love with Jesus

Simona Tronci's story, died at the age of 23, in April 1984, for a malignant tumour that made her immobile, is reflected in the title of the book dedicated to her, by Clemente Pilloni: 'Deeply in love with Jesus'. These author's simple words are enough to talk about Simona.

A lighthouse on the path of God

Sometimes we think about saints as if they were characters of other times. Simona Tronci is a little extraordinary figure of our time, died in 1984 at the age of 23. A humble and painful journey, the intelligence of a woman, the power of faith and the song of Love on the bed of suffering.

The days

I read this testimony of Simona at the end of the homily of the deceased in the great monumental cemetery of our city crowded with worshippers. It seemed to me an exemplary testimony for all of us who went to visit our departed loved, we looked for a response to that pain.
