Description: Light for the Journey: Reflections from Carmel Second Edition Condition is Brand New. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Published by the Saint Teresa Association of Discalced Carmelite Nuns. This is a very unique calendar featuring a quote each day from one of the Carmelite Saints or Blesseds, followed by a personal reflection on that quote. The Nuns at the time of the printing of the first edition wished to honor two significant dates—the first being the 200th Anniversary of the arrival of four Carmelite Nuns who bravely set forth by ship from Belgium to found the first Carmel in America, in Port Tobacco, Maryland. The second date they were honoring was the 400th Anniversary of the death of St. John of the Cross in 1591, who accompanied and greatly helped St. Teresa of Avila in her foundations. These reflections are the fruit of prayer, spiritual reading and Lectio Divina of these Nuns, and are a wonderful way to become acquainted with the vitality and freshness of Carmelite spirituality. The authors were the Nuns of the monasteries that were members of the Saint Teresa Association in 1990. At that time there were twelve Carmels, and each Carmel assumed responsibility for one month. Then the Nuns of that particular monastery selected a quotation from one of their Carmelite saints, and added their own personal reflection or meditation on that passage. So each day is entirely unique, filled with the spirit and wisdom coming from those whose entire lives are suffused with the love of Carmelite spirituality. ISBN: 978-0-5786-0800-6
