At the age of seven, she became a laysister at the Cistercian La Cambre Abbey, the name derived from the Latin: ''Camera Sanctae Mariae'' (Chamber of Our Lady) and she remained there for the rest of her life. St. Alice's feast day is on June 15. However, at an early age, Alice contracted leprosy and had to be isolated. The disease caused her intense suffering, and eventually she became paralyzed and was further afflicted with blindness. Her greatest consolation came from reception of the Holy Eucharist, although she was not allowed to drink from the chalice because of the presumed danger of contamination. However, the Lord appeared to her with assurance that He was in both the consecrated bread and the wine. Famed for experiencing mystical visions every time she receives the Holy Chalice. She died in 1250, at the age of 46. She was canonized as a saint in 1907. Devotion to Alice as a saint was approved in 1907 by Pope Pius X.〔(St. Alice ) at Catholic Online〕
