Oct 23: Saint Ethelflæda of Wessex (10th century)

Ethelflæda was the daughter of Æthelwold of Wessex. She joined the Abbey of Romsey under the abbacy of Morwenna, and eventually became abbess herself. She practised an austere life, and on her death was buried in the Abbey beside St Morwenna.
Saint Ethelflaeda, pray for us.
