John Michael Talbot

Renowned Catholic singer, composer and author John Michael Talbot will give a presentation at Maryknoll's Queen of Apostles Chapel Saturday, April 24, 2010 starting at 2:30 p.m.

As part of Maryknoll's Speaker Series, Talbot will introduce us to his new Orbis book: The World is My Cloister. He shows that one need not live in a monastery to experience the peace of God. Solitude and sacred stillness may be cultivated wherever we are.

Talbot is Catholic music's number one recording artist, having sold four million records worldwide. He is also the founder of a monastic community: the Brothers and Sisters of Charity. Among his most popular songs are "Be Not Afraid" and "Here I Am, Lord."

The lecture is free and open to the public. RSVP to Ms. Betsey Guest: bguest@maryknoll.org or call (914) 941-7636, ext 2219.

**************************************************

Segue to Betsey Guest announcing her plans to retire at the end of June. Betsey has served as our media relations contact since 2006 and assistant to Howard Schwartz before that. She has done a yeowoman's job getting positive press for Maryknoll. She will be sorely missed and difficult to replace. All the best after June! (Until then, keep up the great work!)
