Synopsis

Taking seriously the prayer of Jesus that all may be one (Jn17:21), Sister Chinyeaka Ezeani tries in this book to articulate clearly the challenges as well as the beauty of living as people from different cultures in the religious life.The underlying assumption of her work is that intercultural community living of the religious is like a lamp on the hill for the world to see that it is possible and necessary to appreciate the beauty that each culture brings. This requires continuous openness to conversion to the heart of Christ and prayerful attentiveness to the biases or complexes that tend to support the mischaracterisation of other cultures.Sr Chinyeaka C. Ezeani is a Missionary Sister of the Holy Rosary. She holds a Licentiate in Psychology from the Gregorian University, Rome. She has wide experience in both initial andongoing formation, workshops for formators and leadership teams of religious congregations in Africa and Europe. She is the author of Rooted in Christ, Insights into Contemporary Religious and Priestly Formation.
