ABC Wednesday: Jesuits

Our ladies’ group, Women at the Well, 

is reading this book by a Jesuit priest Father James Martin.  

Since we meet only once a month 

and do not meet in the summer, 

we will continue to read this interesting book into 2015.  

Father Martin relates the saints’ lives, 

as well as those who led saintly, holy lives, 

and how they have impacted his own life.  

The saints or saintly that we have encountered thus far are these:

The Saint of the Sock Drawer- Jude

Joan of Arc

Thomas Merton

Ignatius of Loyola

Pedro Arrupe

Bernadette Soubirous

And for April, we are reading about these:

Mother Teresa

Pope John XXIII

 Then some of our ladies 

share the history and spirituality of each saint 

we have studied with their own unique presentations.  

We are fortunate to have such industrious 

and interesting speakers in our group.

I highly recommend this book 

for its spiritual value 

as well as its entertaining way of sharing 

the lives of these faith-filled people 

whose journey we may choose to emulate.
