Loving a Passionate God: Retreat With Jessica Powers

Loving a Passionate God: Retreat With Jessica Powers by Morneau, Bishop. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780867162363.

Your director for this retreat, Loving a Passionate God, was known in the Carmelite Monastery in Pewaukee, Wisconsin, as Sister Miriam of the Holy Spirit. The poetry she published under her baptismal name, Jessica Powers, reveals a woman who loved God, who hungered for holiness, who suffered under the shadow of the cross, who knew how to laugh and sigh and love. Her greatest desire was that her poetry would draw others into contemplating the mystery of a passionate God.
