We Need One Another Summary

We Need One Another: Responding to God's Call to Live Together by Jean Vanier

In April 2008, Jean Vanier led a simple retreat in Nyahururu, Kenya, a place recently shattered by violence and bloodshed. With frequent reference to the Gospel of John, Vanier communicated God's love and care to a group of deeply shaken people. This book comprises these talks which are offered to 'help each one of us become messengers of peace, of mercy, and of forgiveness'. * What Are You Looking For? * The Cry of the Poor * The Feast Is Ready * To Live in Unity * Be Open * Encountering the Other * The Washing of the Feet

'We all want to be noticed and loved by those who are famous, beautiful, and admired. To be loved by them gives us a good feeling. But to be loved by the poor, by those with disabilities, by those who have no place with the famous, the beautiful, and the admired, is the real place where unconditional love and healing will find us. How do we come to that practically in our lives? In this book, Jean Vanier gives us both a vision and a map. This is vintage Vanier.' Ronald Rolheiser, author of The Holy Longing and Bruised and Wounded; A little book that gloriously conveys the truth of the Gospel, for all people in all circumstances . . . 'Jean Vanier is a living saint' James Martin, SJ; 'A truly humble man' Rowan Williams

About Jean Vanier

Jean Vanier is a philosopher, theologian and man of letters, with a great and compassionate heart. He was awarded the Templeton Prize in 2015 (past recipients including Archbishop Desmond Tutu and H.H. the Dalai Lama). The first L'Arche Community was started in 1964 in Trosly-Breuil, a village in the north of Paris when Vanier invited two people with intellectual disabilities to live with him in a small house. This house he called L'Arche, French for `The Ark', a name then adopted by all communities around the world founded on these principles. Today L'Arche is made up of 151 communities spread over five continents.
