What is Secretum Meum Mihi?
After Edith Stein's abrupt conversion in 1922, her best friend asked, "Why?" Mysteriously, Stein merely wrote "Secretum Meum Mihi," Latin for "My Secret is mine," on a nearby slip of paper.
Modern women have secrets, too. We say to each other, "I don't know how you do it!" The admiration is real…but so is the exhaustion and anxiety behind it, juggling competing priorities and defying time and space on a daily basis.
Do you ever wonder, "How am I going to keep doing it?"
Edith's secret was Jesus. He was her secret "lover," and she dedicated her life to knowing, loving and serving him. At Secretum Meum Mihi Press, we invite you to take a break with Edith. Discover her secret!

Day 6. Are You the master who builds the eternal dome Rising from earth and through to very Heaven? The columns, enlivened by You, rise high And stand firm, immovable. Marked with the eternal name of God, They reach high up into the light, Bearing the cupola, which crowns the holy dome, Your work encompassing the universe, Holy Spirit— God’s shaping hand. Prayer: Come Lord Jesus! We lift up all women religious, for perseverance and joy! Amen.
