Teresa of Avila, the Writer
October 21, 9:30am-12:30pm
Our presenter will be Julie Vieira, IHM.
Teresa of Avila is well known as a medieval Carmelite nun, saint, mystic, reformer and doctor of the church. Her life and wisdom have inspired many within and beyond the church. Yet what was she like as a writer? How did she use this form of art in order to express herself, to tell meaningful stories, and to effect change in the church and world?
In this workshop, we’ll walk alongside Teresa focusing on who she is as a writer and what we can learn from her art of writing and the activism embedded in this writing. We each have a calling to be artful – creative, generative, afire – and active in bringing about a just, good, and beautiful world. (Suggested Offering: $25)
