Saint Adela was the daughter of Dagobert II, King of the Franks. She founded the monastery of Pfalzel near Trier, where she served as the first abbess. She dedicated her life to God and the service of others, living a monastic life.
Saint Adela exemplifies a life of renunciation and devotion, choosing a spiritual path over worldly power. Her establishment of a monastery provided a place of prayer and learning, influencing her community through her faith and leadership.
Saint Adela, inspire us to seek God's will above all else and to use our gifts for the good of the Church and our neighbor. Amen.
