Moriggi read each day the account from the Gospel of John on the Passion of Christ. She was noted for her personal holiness as well as for the austere model of which she led her life and was known to survive on the irregular gifts of food that spiritual students of hers brought to her. She recited a thousand Hail Mary prayers each Saturday. She attracted dozens of would-be students that she agreed to lead a group of five under the Augustinian rule - this also included Giuliana Puricelli.
