description: Flowers from the Ark is a book of delight, joy and wisdom. It gathers stories from the homes of L'Arche - the worldwide ministry for developmentally disabled adults founded by Jean Vanier. Here people, both disabled and abled, make community. As they work, live, laugh and pray together, the disabled "core members" often become the teachers. The stories they share are moments of illumination, funny and bittersweet. For those who look at these pages, they reveal the deepest qualities of our own human nature.
