During Lent, we will be reading "The Mystics Would Like a Word" by Shannon K Evens.  This book covers modern topics through a lens of the teachings of 6 women mystics - Teresa of Avila, Margery Kempe, Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena, and Therese of Lisieux.  We will be reading 2 chapters each week and diving into the topics and the mystic on each Wednesday of Lent. 

We gathered in February to hear from member Susan Nagele about the Maryknoll Lay Missioners and to discuss how we might be able to assist in their much-needed work in promoting nonviolence.
