Celebrating Hildegard of Bingen and God’s Determined Love

September 17, 2019 By Carrie Willard 3 Comments

Today, we honor the feast day of Hildegard of Bingen, a twelfth-century Benedictine abbess who was not elevated to sainthood until 2012. She was a prolific writer and composer, leaving us dozens of songs and poems, and nine books, including works on medicine and pharmacology.
