Teresa Higginson (1844-1905) was a saintly Catholic schoolteacher.
She was born in Holywell, North Wales and grew up in Gainsborough
and Neston. As an adult she lived in Bootle, Clitheroe, Edinburgh
and Chudleigh in Devon where she died. She received many
supernatural gifts including the Mystical Marriage and the
Stigmata. Teresa was chosen by Christ to make known His great
desire that His Sacred Head be worshipped as the Seat of Divine
Wisdom. This would be a remedy for a time of foolish intellectual
pride and lapsing from the faith. It would be not only the
completion of devotion to the Sacred Heart, but the crowning of all
devotions. In fact it was prophesied to be the one great means for
the conversion of England. Lady Cecil Kerr's account of the
Venerable Teresa Higginson remains the standard biography and is
based on many of Teresa's letters and other direct evidence of her
remarkable life. This new edition features an introduction by the
Roman theology professor, Rev Dr Paul Haffner. Mary Catherine Cecil
Kerr was born on 15 November 1878. She was the daughter of Admiral
Lord Walter Talbot Kerr and Lady Amabell Frederica Henrietta
Cowper. She died on 19 July 1957 at age 78. Lady Cecil Kerr was a
religious sister who wrote several other historical and devotional
works, including The life of the Venerable Philip Howard, earl of
Arundel and Surrey, The Miraculous Medal, and Bishop Hay, a Sketch
of His Life and Times
