BOOK REVIEW | ALBERT & HIS RULE

Albert and His Rule

This book is a “must read” for anyone who describes him/herself as Carmelite: friars, nuns, sisters, and seculars – both OCarm and OCD., and a “helpful read” for anyone who wants to live a spiritually-centered life informed by the Carmelite Way.
