Jean Vanier himself revised this updated edition as he looks back on 47 years of L'Arche communities.\nFounded in 1964 in Trosly-Breuil, France, LArche communities can now be found worldwide. LArche is dedicated to the creation of faith-based day programs, support networks and homes for people with intellectual disabilities.\nFlowing through the book is the philosophy and spirituality of LArche, which has allowed it to grow from a humble home of three men to a worldwide organization operating in over 40 countries. Along with dates and events, readers will discover the spirit that keeps Vaniers dream alive and thriving today.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 2896463682\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.2896463682.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Jean Vanier\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
