Angelo was born on September 1, 1642.
His life can be divided into two periods: the years spent in his religious province of Tuscany, and those spent in Rome.
Wherever he had worked during the first period of his religious life, he had given a fine impression as a religious steeped in silence, prayer and mortification, but, above all, given to the works of charity, both spiritual and corporal, in favor of the sick and the poor.
In Rome he had the care of the two hospitals (for men and for women) of St. John and established the hospice for the convalescent poor on the street that led from the Colosseum to the basilica of St. John Lateran.
His motto was: "Whoever loves God must go to find Him among the poor".
