Phileena Heuertz - Word Made Flesh

Phileena Heuertz serves as co-director of Word Made Flesh (WMF)--an international community serving Christ among the most vulnerable of the world's poor.

Phileena has traveled through nearly 70 countries working with marginalized and oppressed people-abandoned children, victims of HIV and AIDS, sexually exploited women and children, people recovering from drug addictions, children who live on the streets, refugees and children of combat and war.

Her first book, Pilgrimage of a Soul (InterVarsity Press 2010), is a provocative theological narrative, steeped in contemplative spirituality.
