Christian feast day: Angela of Foligno

Angela of Foligno was an Italian Franciscan tertiary who became known as a mystic from her extensive writings about her mystical revelations. Due to the respect those writings engendered in the Catholic Church she became known as Theologorum Magistra, as first used by Maximilian Sandaeus, later cited by Bollandus in the Acta Sanctorum.

January 4 is the fourth day of the year in the Gregorian calendar; 361 days remain until the end of the year.
