Below is an old list of popular magazine articles I wrote on Sor Maria de Agreda before my work was taken over by the books. Sor Maria has still been in the news, however, and at some point I'll list some of the more intriguing articles, especially after the Vatican took an interest in her following the 2015 conference on her in Rome. Stay tuned! -- Marilyn
