Blessed Angela of Foligno - Lover of the Eucharist

Send us Fan MailBlessed Angela of Foligno (1248-1309)Thirteenth Century Mystic - Passionate Lover of Jesus Hello, family and welcome.  We're Bob and Penny Lord and we have a very special Super Saint to share with you today, Blessed Angela Foligno.Within twenty five years after the world was to lose St. Francis of Assisi, the little, great Poverello, the Lord was to call forth a new light to brighten the world - our penitent Blessed Angela.  In Foligno, a city a very short distance from Assisi, a cry would come forth in the night that would one day reach out and touch some of the greatest Saints in the world, and now us.  The seed had been planted by the contradictory Poor One, Francis, and the Lord would not allow it to lie dormant in the ground.  Like the Mustard Seed, a great strong tree would grow and having blossomed, bear great fruit.  One might agree with such great Saints as Catherine of Siena and Catherine of Genoa in saying that Blessed Angela was one of the blossoms from that tree that would bring a new, delightful fragrance to the world by her love story with Jesus, so like that of St. Francis - her Spiritual Father.More about Blessed Angela of FolignoOpen by Steve Bailey Support the showJourneys of Faith brings you Super Saints PodcastsVisit our blog for full text of our podcasts https://journeysoffaith.com/blogs/eucharist-mary-saintsDownload Journeys of Faith App for Iphone or Android FREE https://journeysoffaith.com/pages/download-our-appPlease consider subscribing to this podcast or making a donation to Journeys of Faith Help us Grow!Journeys of Faith is blessed to provide Catholic media, including podcasts and inspirational content, free of charge across multiple media platforms for viewers and listeners around the world.
