The authors of this book are Providence women from five of the thirteen-member congregations of the Women of Providence in Collaboration.  Marie McCarthy, SP and Anji Fan, SP are from the St. Mary-of-the-Woods in Terre Haute, IN; Ruth McGoldrick, SP is from the Sisters of Providence in Holyoke, MA;  Michele Bisbey and Myra Rodgers are CDPs from the Allison Park, PA, Sisters of Divine Providence;  Alba Letelier, SP, Hong Nga Nguyen, SP and Annette Suebert, SP all belong to the Sisters of Providence who began in Montreal, Quebec, Canada and spread throughout the United States.

New contributors, as well as four reflections devoted to intercultural voices and experiences, also take us inside ourselves to probe deeper meanings of abundance, expansion of partnership with  God in the very action of transforming our world, and the challenges of being the face of Providence within a different culture and in different settings.  Truly this work will provide much food for thought as to how each of us lives the charism of Providence in the world today.
