Richard Van Helsink was wealthy, very wealthy, but money did not give his life meaning. In his quest to find meaning he wandered into a small church. There he met a young nun with a giving spirit. In an effort to redeem himself he offered the young nun whatever she requested. Instead of taking his money she challenged him to leave a legacy by adopting a child. Initially he rebelled, but her request haunted him. With all the resources money can buy he accepts the challenge. In prideful arrogance Richard adopts six infant girls. The goal is to raise six cultured women, capable of everything, who will influence the world for good. With the assistance of a paradoxical young nun and the mysterious Madam Francesca Richard plunges into the joys and pains of fatherhood. Angels the Beginning follows the tears and triumphs of the quest through to the girls' spectacular coming out party.
