Reading the October-December 2010 Signs of the Times is restoring my hope, particularly the stories about Sisters of the Spirit, and “A Voice is Heard in Segovia.”  I most enjoyed “Encounter on the Jesus Trail.”  These stories of people subverting the institutions that appear to support them, of surprising hope and even joy…came just at the right time.

Daniel Wilcox, California, USA
