Hailing originally from New Jersey, Juliette Angelo spent her early years of life amidst darkness and abuse. Thrown into the entertainment industry at a very young age, she began her theatrical career on Broadway where she very quickly learned of the dangers and lack of protections child actors face. After a series of catalytic events leading to her abrupt move to Los Angeles at 13 years old, Angelo began working in film and television. At 21, Angelo left the industry to move to Nashville, Tennessee with the intention of being a musical artist. Overcome with addiction and trauma, Angelo hit a rock bottom suicide attempt that forced her into sobriety. After traveling a very successful Patsy Cline tribute show, Angelo made the decision to leave secular music and fully use her voice for the Lord. Join Juliette and her guitar for a night of rich testimony, faith, heartbreak and pain, that ultimately led to complete redemption in Jesus. Join Frontier United Methodist Church, 1888 East Four Mile Road on Wednesday, April 1 at 7:00pm. Angelo firmly believes that you are never too far gone to be saved. Your past does not dictate your future. “I was born into darkness, but I am made of light.”
