Blessed Joanna of Portugal
Bl. Joanna was very beautiful and her hand was sought by several princes, including Richard III of England, Charles VII of France, and Maximillian, heir to the Holy Roman Empire
Born at Lisbon, 16 February, 1452; died at Aveiro, 12 May, 1490; the daughter of Alfonso V, King of Portugal, and his wife Elizabeth.
She was chiefly remarkable for the courage and persistence with which she opposed all attempts on the part of her father and brother to make her marry. She had resolved from childhood to be the spouse of Christ and, when possible to enter the religious state; but being the next heir to the throne in default of male issue, her wish was particularly obnoxious to her family and to the country.
Joanna was very beautiful and her hand was sought by several princes. Once, in her father’s absence, she had to act as regent of the kingdom, and in that office is said to have shown great capacity.
Blessed Joanna of Portugal with the three crowns she refused at her feet
After many struggles, she entered the Dominican house called the Convent of Jesus, at Aveiro, where the rule was severe and very strictly kept. For a time she was compelled, for political reasons, to leave it and go back to Court. Finally, however, she was professed; and her life in the convent was so penitential, holy, and heroically humble, that she died in the odor of sanctity, and miracles followed her decease.

As Princess Royal, Blessed Joana of Portugal fulfilled her Court obligations with perfection, even acting as Regent, for a short time. But her vocation was in the religious sphere, so she turned down the brilliant career she could have had, and became the Bride of Christ, a Dominican nun.
How many thousands were influenced by this heroic example? Not just in her lifetime, but down through the centuries?
At the heart of the nobility's mission is the spirit of the Cross, the spirit of sacrifice: denying oneself to serve the common good. Her beautiful life example helped instill this love of the Cross in the hearts of many. Reply
