Light and Strength by O S B Dom Guy Marie Oury
Light & Strength - Mother Cecile Bruyere, First Abbess of Sainte-Cecile of Solesmes. New - First English translation of the French original, by Dom Guy Marie Oury, O.S.B. Born in 1845, at the age of eleven, providential circumstances brought young Jenny Bruyere under the spiritual tutelage of Dom Prosper Gueranger, abbot of Saint-Pierre of Solesmes. Under his spiritual guidance she blossomed and became, at the age of 25, the foundress and first abbess of the Benedictine abbey of Sainte-Cecile of Solesmes. This biographical work is at once a fascinating account of religious life in post-Revolutionary France, an exposition which brings to light the interior life of a great woman of God and her teachings as a religious superior, and a revealing analysis of a little known dimension of Dom Prosper Gueranger's life and work as Abbot of Saint Pierre of Solesmes.
