description: This extraordinary book allows the reader to penetrate the heart and soul of Elizabeth Ann Seton through her writings to her friends. During her brief life (1774-1821) she was a successful wife, mother, teacher. Seton was also founder of the Sisters of Charity, and is the first native-born American saint of the Roman Catholic Church. All of her accomplishments flowed from the fact that she was first and foremost a woman of prayer. She expressed that spirit of prayer in her writings, meditations, reflections, prayers, poems and songs, written for herself, her friends, and for her religious community. This rich selection from the saint's writings give us a glimpse into her heart and soul, and her very special relationship with God.
