"""Wisdom from the Global Sisterhood is a rich array of essays organized in ten themes capturing the insight, experience, and voice of sisters across the globe. It is a moving testimony (and reminder) of how sisters are creating and sustaining the Church in both great cities and hidden villages in a multitude of languages and cultures."" Fr. Tom Gaunt SJ, CARA and editor of New Faces, New Possibilities and Pathways to Religious Life ""A splendid collection of personal stories infused with spiritual experience, human trials, and pastoral sensitivity. These heartfelt chapters come from and project a global vision and feminine embrace that women religious bring to the joys, hopes, and pain of humanity. It is a book that speaks truth to the power of love for God and neighbor and gently guides us to continue our journey together in faith, hope, and courage. What a gift. I couldn’t put it down."" Rose Pacatte, FSP, Director, Pauline Center for Media Studies, Rome Office ""Wisdom from the Global Sisterhood celebrates ten years of documenting the spirituality and justice work of Catholic women religious worldwide. Stories from seasoned sisters like Mary John Mananzan, Nancy Sylvester, Margaret Gonsalves, and next generation leaders like Corbin Hannah and Tracey Horan convey the rich contributions of nuns. Questions and photos with each essay invite more personal and communal reflection. Congratulations to Global Sisters Report and ad multos annos."" Diann L. Neu, cofounder and codirector of WATER, Women’s Alliance for Theology, Ethics, and Ritual is author of Stirring WATERS: Feminist Liturgies for Justice ""The integrity and reputation of the Global Sisters Report is a key incentive to read this book in its entirety. Gathering the vivid insights and global experiences of Catholic Sisters from varying charisms quickly invites the reader to want to learn more about vocations to religious life. This book is ideal for those discerning a vocation, especially the meaningful reflection questions after each article. It is also a timeless treasure for everyone who is seeking to understand the significance of answering God’s endless call to become a Sister."" Sr. Deborah Borneman, SSCM, National Religious Vocation Conference Director of Mission Integration ""Wisdom from the Global Sisterhood provides powerful and inspiring evidence that religious life is alive and well in the twenty-first century. The authors' voices—from around the world and from a spectrum of communities—r​eveal the remarkable scope of women's spiritual and ministerial gifts to the church and to the world. The reflection questions that accompany each piece are additional testimony to the writers' generosity. Here's to many more decades of Global Sisters Report!"" Margaret Susan Thompson, Syracuse University"
