From Our Lady of the Mississippi Abbey
INSIDE THE SCHOOL OF CHARITY
Lessons from the Monastery
Drawing on her journals from living inside the enclosure of Our Lady of the Mississippi Abbey (a community of twenty Trappist nuns) for three months in 2003, her reflections on the unexpected challenges and insights that emerged during that time, and on her own experience as a professional woman, wife, daughter, and mother, Trisha Day delves into the questions of how the centuries-old wisdom of monastic life can challenge, inspire, and guide those living outside the monastery. Filled with stories from her own life and fascinating details of daily life in the monastery, her book is sure to strike a spark with all those seeking to live in a fully human and Christ-centered way. 242 pages, paperback
