May 6, 2024, Adrian, Michigan – Sisters Kathleen Deignan, CND, PhD, and Libby Osgood, CND, PhD, PEng, offer a contemplative reflection on the prayers, poems, and hymns of Jesuit priest and scientist Father Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, SJ, and how the presenters wove these works into a Book of Hours for daily prayer. Teilhard de Chardin: Book of Hours is offered via livestream from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, June 5, 2024.
Through this reflective evening, Sisters Kathleen and Libby invite participants to cultivate the “cosmic sense” of faith awakened through the works of Teilhard de Chardin. There is no need to have read their book to enjoy this evening presentation.
Sister Kathleen, Professor Emerita of Religious and Theological Studies at Iona University in New Rochelle, New York, is a composer of sacred song and director of the Deignan Institute for Earth and Spirit. Sister Libby, Associate Professor of Sustainable Design Engineering at the University of Prince Edward Island, once worked on two NASA satellites as an aerospace engineer.
The cost of the event is $45. Registration is required and may be made online at www.webercenter.org (click on “Programs”), by phone, 517-266-4000, and by email [email protected]. Limited scholarships are available.
