In honor of Women’s History Month, we are celebrating women saints like Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross. Born Edith Stein in 1891 into a Jewish family, she was a brilliant philosopher whose search for truth led her to Catholicism after reading the writings of St. Teresa of Ávila. Entering the Carmelite order, she continued to offer her intellect and faith to the Church amid rising N**i persecution. Arrested in 1942 and sent to Auschwitz, she died in the gas chambers, offering her life in solidarity with her people. Canonized in 1998, she is honored as a philosopher, mystic and modern martyr whose courage and conviction continue to inspire generations.

Dr. Nadia Cheek was honored with the Hope Hits Harder Endowed Directorship in Pediatric Hematology-Oncology at CHRISTUS Children’s, celebrating her exceptional leadership and lasting impact on children with cancer.

An associate professor at Baylor College of Medicine and pediatric hematologist-oncologist at CHRISTUS Children’s, Dr. Cheek has helped shape and grow the program for more than a decade. She leads the pediatric cancer survivorship program, providing long-term, coordinated care for children who have completed treatment but face ongoing health risks. She also plays a key role in training the next generation of specialists as program director of the Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Fellowship.

Thank you, Hope Hits Harder Cancer Foundation, for your continued investment and partnership. Their support strengthens patient care, advances education and reinforces our shared commitment to children and families across South Texas.

In honor of Women’s History Month, we are celebrating women saints like Saint Rose Philippine Duchesne. Born in France in 1769, she endured the upheaval of the French Revolution and years of uncertainty before finally answering her call to missionary life. In 1818, she journeyed to the United States, establishing schools and the first convents of the Sacred Heart west of the Mississippi, and serving communities in Missouri and Louisiana. Later, she ministered among the Potawatomi people in Kansas, where her deep prayer life earned her the name “Woman Who Prays Always.” Canonized in 1988, she is remembered as a patron of perseverance and a model of missionary courage and dedication.
