An Address to the Sisters of St. Peter's Home, Brompton

"An Address to the Sisters of St. Peter's Home, Brompton" by Edward Meyrick Goulburn is a sermon from 1864 offering spiritual advice to the women dedicating their lives to caring for recovering patients at St. Peter's Home. It highlights how living a life deeply rooted in Christian values allows the caregivers to positively impact those around them. The text stresses the importance of keeping God in their thoughts, accepting life's challenges, and dedicating their actions to Christ, explaining that their behavior and care toward patients should reflect their faith and inspire moral growth. The discussion cautions against focusing solely on personal religious practices without engaging in helping others, instead promoting a belief that true Christianity involves serving and connecting with the world through acts of kindness. The core message guides the Sisters to strengthen their personal connection with God while fully committing to their compassionate mission.
