The book review on the cover states," Love: A Guide for Prayer is the first book of a five-book series entitled Take and Receive. These volumes offer support and direction for solitary prayer as well as provide a framework for use in prayer groups or faith-shring groups. Ecumenical in content and approach, the series is also a resource for spiritual directors, retreat leaders, and religious formation personnel. Based on the model of Christian conversion found in the Spiritual Exercies of Saint Ignatius, these books are intended for all who hunger to more intimately know God's presence, activity, and love in their lives. Jacqueline Syrup Bergan and Sister Marie Schwan founded the Center for Christian Renewal in Crookston, Minnesota, in 1976. They are extensively involved in the direction of retreats, parish days of prayer, and worksho0ps on spirituality.
