I am very pleased to be joining in here at Amazing Catechists to give away a copy of three of my book titles:
Catholic Saints Prayer Book, A Catholic Woman’s Book of Prayers, and Catholic Prayer Book for Mothers, all from Our Sunday Visitor!
Lisa Mladinich has reviewed my book Catholic Prayer Book for Mothers. She graciously said: “Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle’s delightful pocket-sized volume, Catholic Prayer Book for Mothers, is like all her work in that it comes from the depths of her heart. But it is so much more. Yielding her days, moment by moment to God through the example of Our Lady, and guided by the extraordinary teachings of the Catholic Church, Donna-Marie has received along the way the luminous and enduring grace of a mother’s wisdom, which she shares with affection and humility.
I always light up under the influence of this wise and tender friend to women; one who has prayed, suffered and rejoiced with Our Lord through all of life’s varied moments in an attitude of trust. This little book makes me think of a garden, with its smaller beds of ferns and flowers, overflowing with life and beauty. In each chapter, you’ll discover small blossoms of scripture, quotes from popes, saints, and the Catechism, traditional and original prayers and poems, and personal thoughts for meditation.
This compilation is a wonderful gift for every mother or grandmother who needs a reminder that her hidden life of dedication to her children is “an integral part of the means to their salvation,” and that God’s grace is available to her in abundance for their every need. Like the author herself, the Catholic Prayer Book for Mothers is here ‘…to assist you in keeping your heart always lifted up toward Heaven, communicating with the Divine, even as your hands are occupied with household and motherly tasks.’ Highly recommended.”
Have a quick look at this brief book trailer for my upcoming book, Embracing Motherhood due to be released in early January and available at my website: www.donnacooperoboyle.com
