- Sister Mary Baruch: The Early Years
1
Becky Feinstein is well-acquainted with unexpected tragedy. Growing up in New York City during the turbulent 1960s, she has already experienced her brother's death in Vietnam and her family's gradual drifting apart. So when her closest friend suddenly becomes gravely ill, this nice Jewish girl decides to give her an unconventional gift by lighting a candle in a big gothic church on Lexington Avenue. Little does she realize, as she passes through the heavy wooden doors of Saint Vincent Ferrer's, that after this afternoon nothing will ever be the same. For there, lighting a candle for a friend, she discovers someone waiting for her in the “still, quiet place” of her heart . . .
- Sister Mary Baruch: The Middle Years
2
We first met Sr. Mary Baruch in Volume One, when her name was Rebecca Feinstein. She was a nice Jewish girl from the Upper West Side of Manhattan. To the chagrin of her good family, she became a Catholic, and five years later, at the age of twenty-five, she entered a Dominican cloistered monastery, where she became Sr. Mary Baruch of the Advent Heart. Those were the early years. In this present volume, she's in her middle ages and passing through her own midlife crisis. Having now been a nun for over twenty-five years, she finds that her family, her Church, her community, and her life are all going through changes and tragedies as the third millennium approaches. Will the Faith save her or lose her?
- Sister Mary Baruch: Vespers
3
Sr. Mary Baruch is not a “millennial.” But like all of us she passed through the doors of the new millennium. Unlike most of us, her passage was in a cloistered monastery in Brooklyn Heights, New York. We first met her in “The Early Years” and accompanied her through her “Middle Ages.” In this third volume, we enter with her into the evening years, the “Vespers,” of her cloistered life. From her Jewish childhood, the Passover, fulfilled in Christ, becomes her way of life.
