Description
-
Written in English, this document is an autobiographical spiritual memoir of the Single Sister Eliz. Rawdon (1747–1770). Written in first person, the narrative recounts her upbringing near Mirfield, participation in Moravian children’s meetings, experiences in domestic service, spiritual struggles, and growing commitment to Moravian religious life. The memoir reflects themes of repentance, inward conviction, Christian fellowship, and devotion to Christ common to eighteenth-century Moravian autobiographical literature.
