About Fidela Oller Angelats

  • Blessed Fidela Oller Angelats (17 September 1869 - 30 August 1936) - born Maria Dolors Oller Angelats - was a Spanish Roman Catholic professed religious and professed member from the Religious Sisters of Saint Joseph of Girona.
  • Oller was born to potters and lived her life in her town until she set herself on entering a religious order.
  • But the premature death of her father forced her to return home to tend to her mother and brothers though she later returned to the order for her profession and religious life.
  • Oller moved from place to place in service to her order and rendered her assistance to the ill in hospitals where she was known for her attentiveness and comfort.The outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in 1936 caused her to hide in different locations in Gandía where she had been stationed until she moved in with a fellow religious: Sister Josefa Monrabal Montaner.
  • But the two were discovered and the militiamen who came to arrest them hauled them into a truck and then gunned them down along a road at Xeresa.The pair were beatified alongside their colleague Caterina Margenat Roura (who had been slain that same week as them) on 5 September 2015 in the Girona Cathedral after Pope Francis confirmed their beatification in a decree issued some months prior.
