Quote for the Day:
What seems our worst prayers may really be, in God's eyes,
our best. Those, I mean, which are least supported by devotional
feeling. For these may come from a deeper level than feeling.
God sometimes seems to speak to us most intimately when he
catches us, as it were, off guard.
C. S. Lewis
Quote from the book, "101 Inspirational Stories of the Power of Prayer"
|
I want to thank everyone so far who has offered to help support my "mini" spread the word campaign about our new book. So far I think I have about 300 people who have taken up the mission! Thank you so much and your free book will be in the mail almost as soon as it is printed because I am having the printer send it to you from their mailing room!
We still have about 700 free books set aside to send... so there is plenty of books if you didn't send in a request yet. Also I don't expect you to "give" away this book... this is your book.. to keep ? I just ask that you find someway(s) to share about it with others. And it is such a "gift" to me to have you do this - I know it will be more powerful and friendly than if I spent this same amount of money putting an ad in a paper or other advertising medium.
And of course if for any reason you don't like the book or think it is something you would not want to recommend than I certainly don't expect you to feel obligated in any way to do anything! Really. I only want you to spread the word if it really is something you can feel would be helpful to others.
On Tuesday I got an endorsement from Anthony DeStefano (an author who works extensivley for Priests for Life) and this is what he said.
I?ve just finished reading Sr. Patricia Proctor?s wonderful book, 101 Inspirational Stories of the Power of Prayer, and let me tell you, I was certainly inspired! This is truly a remarkable book, filled with humor, sincerity, and profound spiritual insights. I heartily recommend it for anyone who has ever had trouble trusting in the power of prayer and the reality of God?s saving love. The stories here?related in a beautifully clear and simple way?will make a believer out of the most cynical Doubting Thomas.

and A Travel Guide to Heaven
I felt so blessed and encouraged by his words! Tomorrow I will share with you the wonderful endorsement I got by Danielle Bean!
My hope is of course - that once you see the book - you will love it! That's my hope. I do know that it has become my favorite book so far. Not that I haven't loved every one we've done - but prayer - is such an essence of living a Christian life and its just awesome to see how prayer is such a part of so many people's lives. Totally uplifting.
If you think prayer is heavy and oh my gosh you should do tons more than you are doing.. I think you will be surprised to see how simple prayers from every day folks does amazing things! Whew. A relief don't you think?
Anyway here is my email address if you want to join in on the Publicity Squad! 1srpat@calledbyjoy.com and don't forget to include your complete mailing address
Blessings and Peace,
