Sabbatical Journey by Henri J M Nouwen

In September 1995, Nouwen took a year's sabbatical to write, pray and visit family and friends. Although he had little time to write, as a spiritual discipline he kept a daily journal enriched with vivid observations and soul-searching reflections. Sabbatical Journey records the flowering of friendship and prayer during what would be his final year on earth.
Henri J. M. Nouwen was a Dutch-born Catholic priest who left a highly acclaimed academic career at Harvard to share his life with people with mental disabilities as pastor of one of Jean Vanier's L'Arche communities in Toronto, Canada. He was the author of thirty-nine books, including many bestselling and influential titles such as The Return of the Prodigal Son, The Inner Voice of Love, and The Wounded Healer. He died in 1996.

Gabrielle Earnshaw is a historian and founding archivist of the Henri Nouwen Archives in Toronto, Canada. She has been the adviser to the Henri Nouwen Legacy Trust for eighteen years and is consulted throughout the world on Nouwen and his literary legacy. She is the editor of Love, Henri and You Are the Beloved, drawn from the works of Henri Nouwen.
