YouTubeSister Mary Regina of the Holy Angels, the first religious sister to join Mother Angelica’s monastery in Hanceville, Alabama, died July 22 at age 78 after a battle with cancer.
“As Mother and her sisters were building the monastery in Irondale, a friend brought her [Jo Ann Magro, 16 years old] there where she met Mother for the first time. At that moment she heard the Lord say, ‘Come,’” Father Wolfe wrote in an email interview.
