The beauty and power of women's liturgical writing is celebrated anew in this expanded edition of a classic collection of prayer and worship material. Now triple the size of the original, and with more than 60 contributors, Celebrating Women, inspires women to create prayers, blessings, litanies and poems for personal meditation and informal group worship.
The movement toward inclusive language and the interest in women's spirituality has opened a floodgate of new voices and fresh insights. The book's contributors have moved away from the pain and helplessness of years past toward constructive anger, clear-sighted analysis, decisiveness and resiliency.
Here are psalms, collects, hymns and eucharistic prayers suitable for formal, corporate worship as well as less structured prayers and poetry that are poignant, imaginative and tough - even funny at times.
An essential reading for anyone who seeks open and inclusive ways of praying.
