ILLUMINATED LIFE
Monastic Wisdom for Seekers of Light by Sister Joan Chittister O.S.B.
includes a SACRED BOOKMARK

This little jewel of a book is an A to Z guide for living a contemplative life without having to move to a monastery or convent. Everyone is so busy these days. Responsibilities overwhelm us. We fall into bed at night thinking, if only we could escape the pressures and problems of life. If only there were more hours in the day! Sister Joan draws upon the practical wisdom of ancient spiritual sages to illumine our lives and show us the way to experiencing peace and love amidst the chaos of our day-to-day lives. In the end, the fruit of contemplation is joy... and hopefully a good night's sleep!

Included with each copy of "Illuminated Life" is a "Sacred Bookmark." Made from galloon braid imported from Europe and commonly used as trim on sacred vestments, a small order of monastic nuns who live by the rule of "waste not, want not" use remnant pieces to make these exquisite bookmarks. While the bookmark's primary purpose is to mark your page, we can't help but wonder if their sacred origins might also kindle a spark of divine inspiration during quiet hours of reading and contemplation.

Book is 128 pages and hardcover. Sacred Bookmark is 15" long and approximately 1-1/4" wide and comes in a variety of colors and designs. One will be specially selected just for you!
