The School of Charity

A profound and spiritual reflection on the Nicene Creed, the basis of Catholic belief.

These meditations, based upon the principal articles of the Nicene Creed, were originally presented by Evelyn Underhill (1875 1941) at a retreat she conducted at her beloved Pleshy, a small village in England that was the site of her conversion to the Christian faith. The renewed interest in mysticism and spirituality today among Christians of all communions draws heavily from her work. The popularity and use of her books by scholar, lay people, and clergy attest to the originality of her writings and the helpfulness of her spiritual direction.
