A Gentle Unfolding: Circling and Spiralling into Meaning (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648804413)

This is a book about vocation, written by a once-upon-a-time religious Sister. The years following the Second Vatican Council were critical ones in the development of the Australian Catholic Church when, encouraged by the proliferation of small Gospel Groups, lay women began feeling their way into new ministries. A Gentle Unfolding is the story of one of those women. In easy-to-read chapters, Judith Scully writes of the ministry possibilities that came and sometimes went and the challenges remaining if the Church is to appreciate the giftedness of women's spirituality.
