Colette Livermore

 



HOPE ENDURES
This is a searing, eye-opening memoir by an extraordinary woman who served for eleven years as a nun in Mother Teresa's order working with the world's poor. It is also the story of her journey into disillusionment with the order and her crisis of faith.

Enormously compassionate, unflinchingly honest, Colette Livermore recounts the horrors she saw and tried to remedy in her work with the sisters of Mother Teresa's Missionaries of Charity in some of the poorest places in the East - in the sprawling, fetid garbage dump of Manila, and the crowded slums of urban India.

An inspiring story of an incredible woman, HOPE ENDURES is also a critique that asks readers to question blind faith and obedience and discover their own true path to practising goodness in life.
