Spiritual Seekers will meet a the home of Alta Mae Frobish to discuss a chapters 11 &12 of Welcome to the Wisdom of the World by Joan Chittister. Certain questions are common to all of us as human beings. Why was I born? What’s important to life? How do I know the right thing to do? What does it mean to make a difference? What’s wrong with me – why can’t I change? Such questions are so deeply human that they transcend time and place, religions and cultures. And this inviting book by Joan Chittister presents the insights of others from different cultures throughout history who have grappled with the same kind of life questions that plague us here and now.

“Jacqueline Winspear has created a memoir of her English childhood that is every bit as engaging as her Maisie Dobbs novels, just as rich in character and detail, history and humanity. Her writing is lovely, elegant and welcoming.”
An eye-opening and heartfelt portrayal of a post-War England we rarely see, This Time Next Year We’ll Be Laughing chronicles a childhood in the English countryside, of working class indomitability and family secrets, of artistic inspiration and the price of memory.
