Saint Heron And Other Black Saints You Probably Never Heard Of
St. Thais
Born in Egypt, St. Thais was a beautiful woman who made a considerable amount of money working as the world’s oldest profession. She eventually inquired about Christianity and wound up converting, leaving her old life as a prostitute behind. St. Thais gave away all of her money and devoted the rest of her life to Christ. After she was accepted into the Church, St. Thais performed penances for her sins before living among the nuns in the desert.
