Mother Barat's Vineyard

3.6/5 ( ratings)

Madeleine Sophie Barat's great longing throughout her life was to enter the Carmelite Order as a lay sister and to lose herself in that humble service. Her brother Louis, who saw that her superb intellect and keen understanding would be lost in such a life, insisted on a strong education, at that time unheard of for women. The girl who always pleaded her own weakness and incompetence became, at the age of twenty, the instrument through which the great Society of the Sacred Heart was founded in Paris in 1800.
