'''Saint Monica''' (c. 331 – 387 AD) was a [[Saints|Christian saint]] from [[Roman Africa]], renowned for her persistent prayers that led to the conversion of her son, [[Saint Augustine of Hippo]]. Born in [[Thagaste]], Numidia, she endured a challenging marriage to a pagan husband, Patricius, and raised her children with steadfast faith, influencing Augustine’s embrace of Christianity in 387. Guided by the [[Diocese of Carthage]] and [[Saint Ambrose]] in [[Milan]], her piety and maternal devotion made her a model for mothers and those facing family strife. Canonized by pre-congregation recognition, her feast day on August 27 in the [[Roman Rite]] draws pilgrims to her relics in the Basilica of Sant’Agostino, [[Rome]].<ref name="catholicsaints">{{cite web |title=Saint Monica |url=https://catholicsaints.info/saint-monica/ |publisher=CatholicSaints.Info |accessdate=18 May 2025}}</ref>
