Angeline of Marsciano was a 14th-century Italian religious sister and the foundress of a congregation of Franciscan tertiaries. Born into nobility in Montegiove, she became a widow at a young age and subsequently dedicated her life to religious service. She is recognized for establishing the first Franciscan community for women living under the Third Order Regular rule, a group that eventually became the Franciscan Sisters of Blessed Angelina. She served as the congregation's first minister general, organizing its statutes and expanding its influence throughout Italy.
