Little Nellie of Holy God: 1903-1908

Little Nellie was not yet four and a half when God took her to Heaven;
but she had already made her First Holy Communion. Nellie received five
of the Seven Sacraments. Before she died; she had received Our Lord 32
times. She knew that in Holy Communion she was receiving God. She
always called Him "Holy God." When the Holy Father; Pope St. Pius X;
heard about Little Nellie; he cried; "There! That is the sign for which
I was waiting." Then the Holy Father said that children could receive
Holy Communion when they were little. They would no longer have to wait
till age 12. Little Nellie is called the Little Violet of the Blessed
Sacrament. Perfect to teach children love and reverence for Our Lord in
the Holy Eucharist
