Eleven years were to pass between the day she took her vows and the day of her formal profession following her conversion. During a quarter of a century of ceaseless activity Mother Lurana fulfilled the mission which God had entrusted to her. No one can view the portrayal of Mother Lurana which Sister Mary Celine has presented without sensing the desire with which this saintly servant of god was inflamed: that they all may be one. ; 8-1/2" Tall; 357 pages.
