This book
is a compilation of remarkable classes Hilda gave at the Cathedral Church of St. John the
Divine in New York City -- classes in which she spoke with love, wisdom and humor of the
saints and holy people who were a living part of her life. The book also includes
practical lessons for living a life of truth, courage, and love.
"When Hilda talked about saints, she began with a gushing
enthusiasm I would normally associate with a teenage girl conteplating her latest
heartthrob. Almost imperceptibly her tone alternated from one of girlishness to a
solemnity manifesting the holiness of the saints' lives to the jocular familiarliy of a
next-door neighbor. Only gradually,subtly, and with the utmost concentration did it dawn
on me that she herself was one of them."
