“After receiving glowing appreciation from those that attended Emma's autumn retreat in Norwich a couple of years ago, we're so pleased to be able to invite you to mark your Lent with her book, At the Foot of the Cross with Julian of Norwich,” said Howard Green from the Friends of Julian

The Reverend Dr Emma Pennington is the Canon Missioner for Canterbury Cathedral and author of At the Foot of the Cross with Julian of Norwich.
 
She has a doctorate from the University of Oxford on the fourteenth century devotional writer Julian of Norwich. Her book, At the Foot of the Cross with Julian of Norwich, is a prayerful resource that enables you to linger on the wonder of the cross and seeks to bring to a popular readership a devotional engagement with Julian’s work.
