Providence Provides: Brigidine Sisters in the New South Wales Province by Janice Garaty

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges.

Since the arrival of the first six Irish-born nuns in Coonamble in central west New South Wales in 1883, generations of Brigidine Sisters have established schools and other ministries in Australia and New Zealand and have addressed educational, social, and religious challenges.

Janice Garaty reveals the story of the Brigidines in the New South Wales Province in this evocative history. Published to coincide with the 130-year anniversary of the Brigidine Congregation in Australia, it is a story of struggle, hardship, conflict and great change, but also of success, lasting friendships, enduring hope and new horizons.
