Presented by Jo-Ann Iannotti, OP via ZOOM

This year will commemorate 55 years since the passing of Thomas Merton on December 10, 1968. We have several programs planned at Wisdom House to honor this amazing individual. 

Thomas Merton (1915-1968) is arguably the most influential American Catholic author of the twentieth century. His autobiography, The Seven Storey Mountain, has sold over one million copies and has been translated into over fifteen languages. He wrote over sixty other books and hundreds of poems and articles on topics ranging from monastic spirituality to civil rights, nonviolence, and the nuclear arms race.

As we approach the birthday of Thomas Merton on January 31st Sr. Jo-Ann will lead us in a remembrance exploring the biography of Thomas Merton and the foundational role silence played in his life as a new monastic.

$20 | Zoom information will be sent just prior to the class via email
