Our Book Club selection for Fall 2024 is [*Braving the Thin Places: Celtic Wisdom to Create a Space for Grace*](https://store.loyolapress.com/braving-the-thin-places) by Julianne Stanz, published by Loyola Press.

This week, author Julianne Stanz and our own Allison Gingras begin the conversation by exploring the concept of *anam cara,* or "soul friend." You won't want to miss the opportunity to learn about this beautiful way we connect with others, and about how you can pray to recognize your soul friend! And, of course, there's much more to the discussion in this session. Don't miss it!
