Gertrude of Helfta - Companion for the Millennium

By Evangela Bossert, OSB
82 pages, softcover, pub. 1999

An inspiring book by Sr. Evangela Bossert, OSB which introduces the reader to this little-known 13th century Benedictine nun and mystic.

Organized around eight mystical experiences or themes which Gertrude recorded in Book II of her work Herald of God's Loving Kindness, each chapter begins with the author's account of Gertrude's spiritual experience. Sr. Evangela then translates and renders Gertrude's often rhetorical and convoluted Latin prose into a simplified, pleasing and faithful description of the same experience in the mystic's own words.

Concluding each chapter is a series of questions, topics for meditation and prayers for personal reflection as readers discover anew Gertrude's message for today's Christian.
