Biography
Blessed Cecilia Eusepi, also known as Maria Angela, was born on 17 February 1910 in Monte Romano, Viterbo, Italy. She was the youngest of eleven children in her family. Cecilia's early life was marked by tragedy as her father passed away only two months after her birth. However, her family's faith remained strong, and she was baptized at the tender age of 9 days.
