A Book of Saints for Catholic Moms is the 2nd Place Winner -
Inspirational, Association of Catholic Publishers' 2012 Excellence
in Publishing Awards Lisa M. Hendey, founder of CatholicMom.com,
leader in Catholic new media, and author of The Handbook for
Catholic Moms, introduces fifty-two holy companions as guides for
the high calling of Catholic motherhood. Hendey's enthusiasm for
the saints is contagious in A Book of Saints for Catholic Moms.
Building on the success of her first book, A Handbook for Catholic
Moms, Hendey continues her work of nurturing hearts, minds, bodies,
and souls - this time through the rich tradition of the Catholic
communion of saints. With the warmth and candor of My Life with the
Saints by James Martin, S.J., Hendey eloquently links personal
stories, scripture, prayer, and simple soul-strengthening exercises
into this rich spiritual resource for Catholic women. Hendey offers
one saint per week - some famous, some lesser known, some whose
cause is in process - to offer companionship and guidance for the
challenging, often under-thanked vocation of Catholic motherhood.
She introduces Saint Therese of Lisieux, Blessed Mother Teresa of
Calcutta, Saint Andre Bessette, C.S.C, as well as Gianna Beretta
Molla and Chiara Badano. The 52 weekly companions to the lives of
the saints include: a thematic prayer intention,biographical and
devotional information about the saint,Hendey's personal lessons,
daily scripture meditations,prayers, and practical, spiritually
rich action steps that help moms incorporate the wisdom and
exemplary faith of each saint into their daily lives.
