…who was a *huge* help to me in writing Mary, Mother of the Son, writes:

I’m contacting you now because I have just published a new book through Theotokos Books about Marthe Robin and the Foyers of Charity – you can see details of it here.

The book looks at the life of Marthe Robin, the French mystic, who, with Fr Georges Finet, co-founded the Foyer of Charity community at Châteauneuf-de-Galaure in southeastern France in 1936. There are now 75 Foyer communities throughout the world, and their work involves a priest, the Father of the Foyer, giving 5 day retreats in silence, during which the members of the community look after the needs of the retreatants and pray for them.

It is a very well written book about an extraordinary woman, and I would hope it would interest readers of your blog. So I was just wondering if you would like a review copy, with a view to posting a short review of it. I can either send you the text as a pdf, or arrange for a printed version to be sent to you – please let me know.

The book costs $11.95, and you can find it on Amazon.com .

You can see more details about the Foyers of Charity here.

Check thou it out!
