OXANNA.
Variant spelling of Russian and Ukrainian Oxana,
meaning "hospitality" or "the
stranger, the foreigner."
Christ, as a little child,
appears to St. Oxanna (A.D. 1449-1505). The good angel of Oxanna,
of Mantua, conducted her, when only six years old, into heaven, and
showed her the glory of the saints. When she returned to earth,
she vowed herself to God without reserve, and forthwith Jesus Christ
came to her, in the form of a little child of ravishing beauty, with
long curling blond locks, but wearing a crown of thorns, and carrying on
His shoulder a heavy cross. Stretching out His arms to Oxanna,
He said to her, "My dear Oxanna, I am the Son of Mary.
If you follow Me, you must suffer much, as I also suffered, and was made
perfect with sufferings." Thus saying, He vanished, and the
little girl was left with a heart brimful of divine love. (Brewer)
