Mary MacKillop on Mission: To Her Last Breath: Correspondence about the Foundations of the Sisters of St Joseph in Aotearoa New Zealand and Mary's Final Years 1881-1909 / Edited by Sheila McCreanor

This third collection of Mary MacKillop's letters begins 15 years after the beginnings of the Sisters of St Joseph. Mary's correspondence reveals her personal journey: she commenced with great energy and enthusiasm but the pressures and privations she had endured led to her increasingly fragile health. Despite this, her faith and trust in God remained strong. We are fortunate that so much correspondence remains for us to read and reflect upon.
