Margery Kempe was a medieval mystic who lived in England in the early 15th century. This service will explore her intimate, vulnerable, shocking and at times notably annoying autobiography, widely considered to be the first of its kind in the english language. Through Margery’s many pilgrimages, visions, and altercations with religious authorities, she becomes, if not a saint as she may have hoped, a beacon of authenticity, personal devotion, and self expression.
