As Saint Mother Theodore said many years ago, ‘Profit by the experience of the past for the future.’ “I have learned from Meister Eckhart’s sermons that it is not our works which sanctify us, but we who sanctify our works.

Sister Adelaide Ortegel

...you find love in the world today?” The question was poignant, because war was raging in Vietnam, racial tensions filled U.S. cities, and many were searching for love in their own lives.
