FAITH & CULTURE SUMMER SERIES
"The Song at the Scaffold" by Gertrud Von Le Fort
Presentation by Dr. Mary Reichardt
9am in Hayden Hall (lower level of Cathedral)
Last December, Pope Francis canonized the 16 Carmelite Martyrs of Compiegne. They took a vow to offer their lives in exchange for an end to the Reign of Terror, and one by one they mounted the scaffold to the guillotine singing hymns of praise. This fictional account follows one of the young nuns as she struggles with fear in the face of martyrdom, a trial that mirrors Jesus' Agony. This talk also considers the historical account provided by William Bush's "To Quell the Terror".
