Previous reports: None
Saint of the Day: Saint Godelieve is a perfect candidate for a 'weddings from hell' documentary. Her husband abandoned her before their wedding feast had even finished and left her in the hands of his cruel family. Godelieve's mother-in-law was responsible for starving and imprisoning her and eventually had her murdered by her servants.
