“Shaping up to be the most important religious book of 2015, Love is Giving Everything marks the Year of Consecrated Life, initiated by Pope Francis.”
“The book gathers 80 witness stories from consecrated male and female religious about what brings them joy and keeps them rooted in their lives to serving God. The stories are collected in a single volume, beautifully illustrated with colourful photos of daily life of vowed religious.”
The witness stories are preceded by Pope Francis’ Hymn to Joy and by Father Albert Longchamp’s, SJ, Hymn to Hope. A Hymn of Thanksgiving by Jean Vanier concludes the book. It was Pope Francis wish to have this book publish in several languages and distributed to as many people as possible.
The book was translated from French by David John Henderson and adapted by Novalis.
