The beloved wife of the late Father Alexander Schmemann, Matushka Schmemann offers a fresh perspective concerning the role of women in the Church and, more germane, in the context of our modern world. Her words are like a flowing river that, through its passage, rejuvenates all -- the land, the people, life, the spiritual garden. As with Matushka's first inspiring book, My Journey With Father Alexander, her words offer a simple, clear, mature affirmation and witness of a life worth living, with Him, in Him, by Him and into His service. The book is enriched by the beautiful illustrations of the accomplished young iconographer and artist Anna Dumoulin-Tregubov
