Exile Ends In Glory: The Life Of A Trappistine, Mother M. Berchmans is a biography written by Thomas Merton that tells the story of a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to the Trappistine monastic order. The book chronicles the life of Mother M. Berchmans, from her early years as a young girl in Belgium to her eventual journey to the United States, where she became one of the founding members of the Our Lady of the Mississippi Abbey.Throughout the book, Merton provides a detailed account of Mother M. Berchmans' spiritual journey, including her struggles with doubt and her eventual acceptance of her calling to the monastic life. He also examines the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated institution and the difficulties of living a life of extreme austerity and self-denial.Despite the many hardships she faced, Mother M. Berchmans remained steadfast in her commitment to her faith and her community. Her life serves as an inspiration to anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the spiritual life and the power of perseverance.Exile Ends In Glory is a beautifully written and deeply moving biography that offers a unique glimpse into the world of the Trappistine order and the life of one of its most remarkable members. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of monasticism or the lives of women in religious communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
