Sister Margaret Mary sought refuge inside Santa Francesca Romana, a tenth-century Catholic church overlooking the Forum. His face was soaked beneath the mask as he knelt at a pew facing the Chapel of the Crucifixion. Initially called Santa Maria Nova (New St. Mary) when built during the tenth century, the church was renamed in honor of Frances of Rome when she was canonized in 1608. Her relics are inside in a glass coffin. Seven years later, this beautiful façade was added.
