Chava Redonnet explores many dimensions of her experience of community in this collection of twenty-four essays written for her parish, Spiritus Christi in Rochester, New York. Staying close to God, to nature and to each other are key, as well as some practical rules: show up, hang in there, and share yourself. Offer your gifts, believe in each other, and always trust God.
She writes, "I believe we have something precious here at Spiritus Christi. I believe community is the way for the church of the future. I believe we can serve as a model for that--one model--there must be lots of ways to be community. But some things are constant: forgive seventy times seven, love one another, bear each other's burdens. And I believe that true community cannot happen without equality."
These essays draw on two decades of rich experience of building community on the parish level, and are offered in hopes that they will help to carry out the work of the church: to nurture the spiritual growth of the people of God, and to build the world God dreams of.
