In this inspiring book, one of the world's most famous women tells her own story: her childhood, her family, and her early years in Albania; her work and religious training as a nun; her years teaching in India; her call to leave her order to serve the poor; the establishment of her Missionaries of Charity; and the growth of her order, including their life together and the work they have done.
The book traces the vocation of the [ Taize ] Community, from its beginnings to the great international gatherings of young and not so young that Taize prepares in major cities of the world; it describes Brother Roger's initiative for peace, the 'Pilgrimage of Trust on Earth', and a number of the pilgrims express what Taize means to them.
