Miracle, the Message, the Story Jean Vanier And L'arche

In 1964 an extraordinary man started an extraordinary project. Jean Vanier, an ex-naval officer, and son of a Governor General of Canada, bought a small house in a village to the north of Paris and invited three men with mental disabilities to share it with him. This was the beginning of l'Arche (The Ark), a special form of community where people who are often rejected and despised by this world can develop their potential to the fullest.Spink, Kathryn is the author of 'Miracle, the Message, the Story Jean Vanier And L'arche', published 2006 under ISBN 9781587680380 and ISBN 1587680386.
