Mother Angelica: Her Grand Silence

The Last Years and Living Legacy

By: Raymond Arroyo

Narrated by: Raymond Arroyo

In a moving, dramatic conclusion to his four New York Times bestselling Mother Angelica books, Raymond Arroyo completes the saga of this singular nun with his most intimate book yet.
 
For more than a decade, the beloved, wise cracking nun who founded EWTN, the world’s largest religious media empire, was confined to her cell at Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in Hanceville, Alabama. Though Mother Angelica is still seen and heard by millions each week in reruns on seven continents, the private drama within her monastery, her personal supernatural encounters, and the prolonged suffering she endured has remained hidden. Until now.
 
Revealed for the first time is the personal request Mother made of God—which sheds light on her long silence. Here are Mother Angelica’s spiritual battles in her cell—including encounters with the devil—and the unrevealed episodes of hilarity and inspiration. From playing possum (to avoid undesirable visitors to her room), to undertaking a secret trip to the far East, to blessing her nuns as they leave her care to create new monasteries, Mother Angelica’s spunky spirit shines through the narrative.
 
Mother Angelica Her Grand Silence, the touching, climactic coda to the Mother Angelica canon also offers readers the personal testimonies of people around the world who were spiritually transformed by Mother during her long public absence. And for the first time, the author writes movingly of his personal relationship with Mother—the highs and the lows.

The light and love that Mother Angelica was for this world!

Loved everything about this book except for the pain Mother Angelica had to endure, however I was inspired by her strength and example of offering up your trials and the power it has when you join it to Jesus’ suffering in penance for our sins and the sins of the world!

The most genuine sincere holy woman

Mother Angelica’s genuine and sincere love for Jesus comes out in everything she touched. Her humor won my heart in my “head” times. Her sharing of Scripture in her own manner was so uplifting and brought out truth understood!! I grew to love her in my own way.
Thank you, Raymond, for both of your audible books on Morher. You narrated with so much love!! - Barb J

Love Mother

Raymond’s love for Mother (and my own) made this an engaging, loving, at times emotional tribute to a woman I never met—but believe has taught me more about how to love God than any other person. God bless you, Raymond. And than you, Mama, for…everything. ❤️

Loved it!

This is a wonderful book. And this production is fantastic. Raymond has done a beautiful job in this audiobook. As he has done in his other audiobooks.
