Proclaiming the Promise

A book of reflections that have emerged as Ruth has journeyed through specific events, times and seasons, and as she has travelled in her spirit through some of the sacred moments of the Cycle of the Christian year. While these reflections are largely born out of a life shaped by the last forty years or so of Ireland's story, the underlying themes are universal. It is Ruth's prayer that the many thoughts and images in this book may enable the reader to see beyond the immediate and be seized by hope in the present and for the future. Rev. Dr. Ruth Patterson OBE is a Presbyterian minister and the Director of Restoration Ministries
