Mother Angelica Her Grand Silence: The Last Years and Living Legacy

The final book in Raymond Arroyo's series about Mother Angelica, the outspoken nun who founded the global Catholic network EWTN, turns to the years she spent largely out of public view. For more than a decade she lived in a cloistered cell at her monastery in Hanceville, Alabama, even as her broadcasts continued to reach audiences around the world. This book looks at the hidden life of the community during that time, including her spiritual struggles and the personal request she made that shaped her long silence. It also gathers stories from people whose faith was changed by her during those years, and Arroyo writes candidly about his own relationship with her, with its warm moments and its difficult ones.
