    "For Love of the Broken Body" Book Conversation

    Sr. Julia Walsh wrote an EXCEPTIONAL book on the Eucharist, Communion, brokenness you must read. In Catholicism, the Eucharist can be simplified into meaning the body of Christ present in the bread and wine. Yet, it also has the meaning of Thanksgiving. There's also the term of Holy Communion and idea of sacrifice all pointing to Jesus offering himself at the Last Supper and the cross. In her book "For Love of the Broken Body: A Spiritual Memoir," Sister Julia expands our view of being part of the body of Christ, being fractured but still united in Christ, seeing one another as united to God, and seeing God present even through our suffering. Julia Walsh is a Franciscan Sister of Perpetual Adoration based in Wisconsin. A storyteller, poet, and community-builder, her ministry experience includes teaching, retreat facilitation, preaching, spiritual accompaniment, justice advocacy, and caring for people who are unhoused and incarcerated. Sister Julia is the author of two books including For Love of the Broken Body: A Spiritual Memoir and is the founder of Messy Jesus Business, a website and podcast that explores the messiness of modern Christianity. The author of numerous articles, her work has been featured on the BBC, Relevant Radio, U.S. Catholic, America, and National Catholic Reporter. In 2017 she received a Master’s in Pastoral Studies from Catholic Theological Union, Chicago. Today she serves her Franciscan community as a vocation director and speaks to a variety of groups about topics such as creativity, contemplation, and Gospel living.
