Through Julian’s Windows

Elizabeth Ruth Obbard O Carm

In Julian's cell were three windows - one looking into the sanctuary of the church, one opening on to a secluded garden where she could attend to her own physical needs and a third where she conversed with all who came for help.

Why Julian Now?
