Praying With Catherine McAuley

Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
Best known as the founder of the Sisters of Mercy, Catherine McAuley's original intention was simply "to make some lasting efforts for the relief of the suffering and instruction of the ignorant." Practical and creative, Mother McAuley began an employment agency for young women, a commercial laundry, an adult education program, a school, and a small shop to sell the handiwork of young women associated with her House of Mercy. Perhaps her greatest contribution to the church, however, is the spirituality that enlivened her mission of mercy -- a fresh and fertile blending of the contemplative spirit and the compassionate heart.

Mercy in the City
Author: Kerry Weber
Publisher: Loyola Press
ISBN: 0829438939
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
When Jesus asked us to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, and visit the imprisoned, he didn’t mean it literally, right? Kerry Weber, a modern, young, single woman in New York City sets out to see if she can practice the Corporal Works of Mercy in an authentic, personal, meaningful manner while maintaining a full, robust, regular life. Weber, a lay Catholic, explores the Works of Mercy in the real world, with a gut-level honesty and transparency that people of urban, country, and suburban locales alike can relate to. Mercy in the City is for anyone who is struggling to live in a meaningful, merciful way amid the pressures of “real life.” For those who feel they are already overscheduled and too busy, for those who assume that they are not “religious enough” to practice the Works of Mercy, for those who worry that they are alone in their efforts to live an authentic life, Mercy in the City proves that by living as people for others, we learn to connect as people of faith.

A Shining Lamp

Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Catherine McAuley (1778-1841), the founder of the Sisters of Mercy in 1831, frequently gave oral instructions to the first Mercy community. Though she sometimes spoke explicitly about their religious vows, her words were always focused on the life, example, teachings, and evangelic spirit of Jesus Christ, emphasizing "resemblance" to him, and fidelity to the calls of the Gospel. Her instructions have, therefore, a broad present-day relevance that can be inspiring and encouraging for all Christians. They are the "shining" words of a companion, a soul-friend, who offers guiding light to those who wend their pilgrim way toward the full embrace of God's merciful reign.
