Resource materials designed for reading groups have been prepared for the following books and are available free of charge from the Henri Nouwen Society.
These resource materials include a brief biography of Henri Nouwen, a scheduling chart and a feedback form. We hope you and your group will share with us your experience of participating in a Nouwen reading group by completing and returning the feedback form. Any comments or suggestions you have regarding the reading group materials would also be much appreciated. You may also wish to subscribe to our mailing list to receive updates on news and events.
If your group is interested in singing together, you might wish to suggest music from the Taizé community. Henri often led Taizé songs during the mass and other gatherings such as his classes at Yale and Harvard.
For prayer selections for your group you might wish to have a look at The Only Necessary Thing: Living A Prayerful Life, by Henri Nouwen, compiled and edited by Wendy Wilson Greer. Available here.
Journey of the Heart: the life of Henri Nouwen is available on our YouTube Channel.
