Saint Walburga was born into a saintly noble English family. When she was 11 years old she was sent to Wimborne Abbey to be educated and eventually, becoming a nun there. At the request of her uncle, St. Boniface, she left England and traveled to Germany to evangelize the pagans. While traveling there, a huge storm threatened the ship and through her intercession, the storm was calmed. While in Germany she became the abbess of the double monasteries of Heidenheim and Hahnenkamm. After she died many miracles occurred like healing the sick and dying and comforting the distressed. In 893, St. Walburga's relics were found moistened with water-clear drops, a fragrant oil, that healed an epileptic boy.
