Launch of 'God for All Days: The Final Monastic Chapters of Christian de Chergé,'

Matthew Cheung-Salisbury, Assistant Chaplain, Worcester College and Jennifer Rushworth, Associate Professor in French and Comparative Literature, University College London

The Imago Dei Series. A series of Lectures and Events on theological anthropology, in preparation for Pusey House's Conference Restoring the Image.
Christian de Chergé was the prior of the Trappist community of Our Lady of Atlas in Tibhirine, Algeria, until his assassination with six of his fellow monks in 1996. Drawn from the last two years of his life, these chapter talks to his brothers offer deeper insight into the monastic search for God in community during tumultuous times. These talks are a treasury of inspiration for those interested in Benedictine spirituality and Christian dialogue with other faiths. We celebrate the publication of the first book-length translation of Christian’s writings in conversation with the editor and translator of God for All Days, Fr Matthew Salisbury and Jennifer Rushworth. There will also be a screening of the film Des hommes et des dieux (2010, dir. Xavier Beauvois), which is set in the community at Tibhirine during the same time period covered by the chapter talks, at Worcester College on 17 May at 2 pm.
