Little SIster Magdeleine in Sidi Boujnani

… living in the human dough, mixed with all, like all, but in keeping an ideal of contemplative life just as intense and just as deep as possible, like Jesus in his workshop in Nazareth, like Jesus on the paths of his public life.
Little Sister Magdeleine (1898–1989)
