Bio: Sr. Jane Marie Murray, OP (1896-1987): Scholar, writer, educator, and innovator in the teaching of religious education. Murray, a Dominican sister of the Grand Rapids, Michigan community, is remembered for her religious education series which was based on the liturgy and the liturgical year. She wrote Christ Life Series (34-35), The Life of Our Lord (1942), Living is Christ (1946) and Christ is His Church (1952). As a member of the National Liturgical Conference, she wrote "Full Measure of Grace," and "One Week of Grace," to instruct students in the United States in the restored liturgy of Holy Week. She also developed an educational program on prison reform and jail ministry at the age of 75. She received several awards for her efforts in liturgical reform.-Biola
