Blessed Mary Angela

Blessed Mary Angela,

We seek your loving way.

Help us to be grateful

For the newness of each day.

In this beautiful poem written by Cindy Lurie and illustrated by Aaron Nethaneel, readers will learn about the saint, Blessed Mary Angela, the Polish nun who founded the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Felix of Cantalice, or the Felician Sisters. Mary Angela, baptized as Sophia Camille, personally endorsed the expansion of the Congregation to North America in 1874 before her death in 1899. Her Congregation continues to further the original mission of Mother Angela, that in all and by all, God may be known, loved and glorified to this day.
