Have you wanted to learn about Benedictine spirituality and the Rule of St Benedict, but you just weren’t quite sure where to start? Then this is just the thing for you. Using Sr. Joan Chittister’s book Wisdom Distilled from the Daily, we will spend four weeks looking at Benedictine values like humility, obedience, hospitality, and stability and what they have to say to us in our lives today. There is no previous knowledge or experience required. Sr. Joan Chittister is a member and former prioress of the Benedictine Sisters of Erie, Pennsylvania. She wrote Wisdom Distilled from the Daily for ordinary people living ordinary lives who are looking for a model of spiritual development to live a life beyond the superficial and uncaring.
