The Sunrise of the Soul

Meditations on Prayerful Stillness, Silence, Solitude, and Service in the Spirit of St. Francis of Assisi

About this book

"Gerry renounces the facile role of guilty bystander to wrestle with the dark angels of his own and the world's sins. He is on his knees, waiting for a mercy he knows he can't manufacture for himself, much less for those whose impoverishment cannot quickly be relieved. He has discovered a mirror for his spiritual dereliction in the thousands of faces his camera has recorded." —Jonathan Montaldo, editor, Dialogues with Silence by Thomas Merton

The Sunrise of the Soul is the fruit of the last 24 years of an unexpected new life and journey of transformation that took Gerry Straub from the glamour of Hollywood to a crowded slum in Haiti where he operates a home of hope and healing for abandoned kids.

After more than four years of intense work in Haiti, he began to turn his attention to his own inner spiritual poverty. In the predawn darkness of each Haitian morning he waits, reflects, and prays. This book emerged slowly from those many hours of silence.
