WHO IS THE AUTHOR OF THE DIARY?
Elizabeth Szántó
Kindelmann was born in
Budapest, Hungary,
in 1913. She was the
thirteenth of a humble
family. When she was
eleven years old, she
became an orphan.
Her life ‘s hardship
marked her personality.
6
She wanted to become a nun, but tried vainly. In 1930 she got married to an
honest craftman. In 1946 Elizabeth became a widow with six young children.
7
The struggle to nourish her family became extremely hard,
superhuman. She occasionally worked a double day (once in
an iron foundry). It is only in such a way that she could make a
living for her family and educate her children.
Her providential mission
began in the year 1961:
after that, we can know
her spiritual life,
owing to her
SPIRITUAL DIARY,
written by hand,
in 423 pages,
by Elizabeth.

and hand it to others!”
