OnlySunshine Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Since y'all on here know more about spiritual reading than I do, can you help me find a book? I would really like to read, "God, the Joy of My Life" by St. Teresa of the Andes, but I cannot find it under $10. I'm on a very strict budget right now and cannot go over $10. I've Googled the title and have come up with nothing -- I wouldn't even mind a used copy. Any help you can give is most appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiquitunga Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 (edited) I searched and I don't think you're going to find one for under $10, unless someone puts a used one up for that price. The cheapest I could find was $13.99, with free shipping - [url="http://www.ebay.com/itm/God-Joy-My-Life-St-Teresa-Andes-S-/380344823889?pt=US_Nonfiction_Book&hash=item588e517051"]http://www.ebay.com/...=item588e517051[/url] You may find one cheaper from a Carmel, but then you have to pay shipping. You could try emailing the Eugene, OR Carmel to see if they have it, [url="http://aquerofoundation.com/id13.html"]http://aquerofoundation.com/id13.html[/url] They have some wonderful rare Carmelite books for super low prices, [url="http://aquerofoundation.com/id19.html"]http://aquerofoundation.com/id19.html[/url] p.s. actually the Eugene Carmel doesn't have email, but here's their address and #: Carmel of Maria Regina 87609 Green Hill Road Eugene, OR 97402 Tel. (541) 345-8649 Edited September 3, 2011 by Chiquitunga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vee Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Yay for reading Carmelite books!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlySunshine Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 I really wished I had requested to take home the copy that was in my guest room while I was staying with the Carmelite DCJ Sisters in 2009. I've been wanting to read that book for a while and had planned to read it while I was there. It was a brand new copy and the Sisters told me that I could have the books. Unfortunately, since I left only 3 days later, I felt guilty about taking it and left it on the desk where they put it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vee Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Im not sure if its the same book or not but the one Im thinking of seemed long on intro and short on her actual writings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuscipeMeDomine Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 If you want to read the book rather than own it, check with your local library. They can generally borrow books through interlibrary loan. There may be a minimal charge for the service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I could use the one Downtown but you have to be a resident of the area, so no-go there, unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
