WHAT: | ![]() To join us, please RSVP below. Lovingly nicknamed "Mother Teresa of Pune" (a city in India), Sister Lucy is a huge-hearted Christian nun whose work is filled with incredible, selfless love. In 1997, she started a sanctuary called Maher (which means 'mother's lap') for abused and destitute children, women, and men. Today, over 4,000 women and 2,000 children have been housed for healing and rehabilitation across their 38 homes in the region). She's the recipient of several awards and honors, including the prestigious Nari Shakti Puraskar "Women Power Award" (conferred by India's president), and 2016 Vanitha Women of the Year Award. When she met Pope Francis last year, she asked for his blessings, and he turned it back around and asked Sister Lucy to give him her blessings. :) ![]() We're very grateful that Sister Lucy will be able to join our local Awakin Circle on Oct 24th, for an evening of meditation, stories and dialogue! If you'd like to join, please RSVP below and you'll be emailed the details. Due to space constraints, we can only accommodate 85 people -- but we will also live-stream the event for those who are waitlisted. Thank you for the opportunity to host. |
