I love to give away joy. When something excites me, I want others to know. When something edifies me and adds meaning and beauty to my life, it seems a sin to not share.
Every once in a while something really special comes along that I am in the privileged position to pass on to others. After months of anticipation, the 80 contributors to this new little gem from Ave Maria Press, “The Catholic Mom’s Prayer Companion: A Book of Daily Reflections,” are celebrating through the miles, giving one another digital High-5s, and squealing with delight at the opportunity to share a book chocked full of inspiration with the rest of the world. And yes, I am among them!
If you’ve heard about it and wanted a copy, today, you’ll have a chance to win one. If you haven’t but are curious, below are a few tidbits to tempt you into vying for your chance to win a copy. I promise, it’s super easy to be added to the drawing. Just leave a comment below about why you think you would enjoy this book, and I’ll announce the winner a week from today and send out your copy. (Make sure to return in a week to see if you won and also, so I can connect with you if you turn up the winner so I can get the book to you!) Easy peasy. And I think you’ll be tickled to have a copy. I know that I am enjoying it immensely as a new part of my morning prayer.
Recently, I did a podcast interview with Allison Gingras which touches on the work, along with other facets of my life as a praying mother and writer.
Here’s my review on Amazon for a sneak peek (middle):
In addition, here are a few other plugs for the project:

Now that you’ve been properly introduced to this treasure of a compilation, I’ll give you a chance to write your comment. I look forward to announcing and sending off my last promotional copy next week!
Q4U: What would having a copy of a book of daily reflections written by a variety of praying mamas mean to you?

Roxane!! I would love a copy of your new book! I have thought about it many times, honestly, and I think it would greatly help me order my day before the kids wake up and the homeschooling begins. Thank you for the opportunity!
