  • Saint Humility was a founder of Vallumbrosan convents, and considered the founder of the Vallumbrosan Nuns. Born Rosanna Negusanti to a noble family from Faenza, she was married at the age of fifteen to a nobleman named Ugoletto (Ugonotto) dei Caccianemici (d. 1256). She bore two children, both of whom died in infancy. In 1250, Ugoletto became a monk upon recovering from an illness that nearly killed him. Rosanna entered the same double monastery of canonesses named Saint Perpetua, near Faenza, becoming a nun and taking the name Humility. She became an anchoress in a cell attached to the Vallumbrosan church of Saint Apollinaris in Faenza, where she lived as a hermit or recluse for twelve years. However, at the request of the abbot-general she founded a monastery outside Faenza and became its abbess. Blessed Margherita became one of her disciples. In 1282 she founded a second convent at Florence, where she died in 1310 of natural causes. She left a number of mystical writings. She was canonized on January 27, 1720 by Pope Clement XI. Her feast day is celebrated on May 22. The relics of Humility and her disciple Margherita are venerated at the convent of Spirito Santo at Varlungo near Florence.
