Description
-
This biography was written by another brother or sister. It recounts Marie's birth in Austria and how she was first raised as a Catholic and then a Lutheran. She then moved to Augsburg where she became acquainted with the Brethren. She felt a call to the Gemeine and moved to Herrnhag in 1740. She arrived in Bethlehem in 1742 where she married and worked in the nursery. The author describes Marie's very long and painful illness as well as her unwavering faith until her death.
