Beskrivning

This book, the first history of the Sisterhood of the Holy Nativity, traces the origins of the order in the late nineteenth century through today. Though clergy were the theological voice of the Oxford Movement, the role of sisterhoods included advancing the catholic faith among the laity through religious education, parish mission, guilds for women and children, spiritual guidance, instruction in the sacraments, the ecclesiastical arts, and humanitarian relief.
