SUMMARY:Ida Friederike Görres’ Bread Grows in Winter
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Jennifer Bryson at the CIC on Thursday\, April 23\, 2026 at 3:30 PM EDT for a discussion of the latest book of Austrian author Ida Friederike Görres she has translated from German to English\, Bread Grows in Winter. \nRSVP to join us in-person or virtually through the livestream. \nIda Friederike Görres was one of the brightest\, most penetrating Catholic writers in 20th-century Europe. Bishop Erik Varden has called her “a treasure we should again make our own\,” while Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI)\, at her funeral\, labeled her a “brave and faithful woman”\, with “an insightful certainty . . . about the pressing questions and tasks of the Church today.” Yet her work is almost entirely unknown in the English-speaking world today. \nThe time has come to discover Ida Görres. This collection of vibrant\, piercing\, often hilarious essays were written in the tumultuous years surrounding Vatican II\, when “demolition troops” bent on destruction mingled with saints like Karol Wojtyła. Rising out of this confusion\, Görres\, with her colorful style\, reveals the raw\, majestic splendor of the Catholic Church\, which is more craggy\, complex\, and solid than any Alpine mountain. \nIf you think you have fallen out of love with Catholicism\, read Bread Grows in Winter: a brutally honest yet poetically inspired meditation on the heart of the faith. Originally published in 1970\, it is perhaps more important today than ever. Can we still trust the “leaky ship” of the Church? Yes\, we can\, and yes\, we must. \nApril 23rd Schedule: \n\n3:15 PM: Doors Open\n3:30 PM: Presentation begins – this portion of the afternoon will be offered both in-person and virtually via a livestream\n4:30 PM: Coffee social and booksigning with Dr. Bryson\n5:00 PM: Afternoon concludes
