Looking Ahead with Hope: Stories of Humanity, Wonder and Gratitude in a Time of Uncertainty - Paperback
by Eddie Gilmore (Author)
Looking Ahead with Hope is a collection of short, inter-connected pieces written over a three-year period in which Eddie Gilmore has worked as CEO for the Irish Chaplaincy, a charity which supports Irish people in Britain, including prisoners, Travellers, and Seniors. At the heart of Eddie's book, which weaves together his visits to prisons, care homes, and monasteries with travels further afield--pilgrimage on the Camino in Spain, walking retreats in the French Alps, and meetings and events in Ireland--are encounters with a host of characters, which touch and transform and which reveal our deep connections with one another. These are stories of wonder, reflections on faith and on the human condition, with a frequent refrain of gratitude, and of hope.
Eddie Gilmore has been CEO of the Irish Chaplaincy since 2017, before which he was a member of L'Arche for 28 years. He writes regularly for a number of publications including Catholic Times, Intercom (the journal of the Irish Catholic Bishops), and Independent Catholic News.
