The Visions, Revelations and Teachings of Angela of Foligno
Angela of Foligno was born in about 1248, twenty-two years after the death of Francis of Assisi, the saint on whom she was to model her life. With sudden deaths in her family, she felt called to follow a more religious and devout life, forsaking everything. In the years that followed she lived a life of total commitment to God. Her teachings and visions, and her deep spiritual wisdom, became internationally recognized as coming from a blessed person. This book provides the reader with a selection of Angela's visions and teachings drawn from The Divine Consolations of Angela of Foligno.
Distant Moments - Angela's Story
Unloved by her mother, adored by her father, 16-year-old Angela Pollak, a fiery Austrian beauty was betrothed, by her parents, to a man she detested. Soon after the wedding, her husband, Hans, migrated to New York and two years later sent for Angela. Shortly after her arrival, Angela noticed her once handsome husband had abusive, drinking problems and was also seeing another woman. A year later, in 1905, their daughter was born and matters got worse with Hans. The couple soon separated—he wanted a new life with his married paramour and Angela was left to raise her beloved Julia in a strange country. Several years later, unforeseen circumstances forced Angela to send the child to Groissenbrunn to be raised by her parents. Rudy enters her life in 1911 and she finds true happiness for the rest of her days. This novel follows Angela’s life to the end. Her successes in New York City were many, especially pioneering Antique Row on Third Avenue more than 70 years ago. Distant Moments—Angela’s Story is filled with drama, excitement, love, disappointments and a feel of what it was like to be an immigrant so long ago.
