VOX Humana: The Human Voice

VOX HUMANA celebrates the transforming power of love, friendship, family and shared human work. As a young woman Charlise Howard left rural western Pennsylvania with music in her soul only to spend her career in Philadelphia as a job counselor helping others "find their voice." Force-retired at 59, Char feels spiritually and emotionally adrift as she moves back to her hometown of Hope. An encounter with a former classmate, Rob Sims now a priest assigned to the struggling Episcopal parish of her childhood, further shakes her assumptions about the choices that have led her to this point. At the keyboard of the historic parish pipe organ and as she helps spearhead a parish-based folk-weaving project to revitalize her dying community, Char learns to risk the love and fulfillment that have so long eluded her. VOX HUMANA is a powerful song of hope for those facing watershed moments in their lives and for generations struggling to reconnect with one another.Agria, Mary A. is the author of 'VOX Humana: The Human Voice', published 2007 under ISBN 9781430317593 and ISBN 1430317590.
