Description

Little Nellie was not yet four and a half when God took her to Heaven, but she had already made her First Holy Communion. Nellie received five of the Seven Sacraments. Before she died, she had received Our Lord 32 times. She knew that in Holy Communion she was receiving God. She always called Him "Holy God." When the Holy Father, Pope St. Pius X, heard about Little Nellie, he cried: "There! That is a sign for which I was waiting." Then the Holy Father said that children could receive Holy Communion when they were little. They would no longer have to wait till age 12.* * *Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange's [Le virtù eroiche nei bambini](https://isidore.co/calibre/browse/book/3731) mentions her.
