"This is an informative book of Catholic women activists, poets, saints and nuns, with historical facts at the beginning, and thought-provoking questions for introspection or discussions at the end of each chapter. It is the kind of book that would be lovely to see on the bookshelves of homes, libraries and faith retreats. It is well-written and documented, with relevant websites and sources provided in its references section." - CMA Book Awards
Are you unsure of how to follow God's will in the modern world?Like you, many Catholic women wonder how to practice their faith in their everyday lives.
It can be a struggle to be a modern Catholic woman when you face challenges like societal judgments and expectations, familial disapproval, financial hardships, or prejudice, but that is when we are most called to trust that God brings good from all things. There are sixteen important Catholic women whose unique stories teach us how embracing God's calling, no matter the circumstances, can turn ordinary lives into something extraordinary.
These women are like us: They are mothers, wives, sisters, and professionals, and are dedicated to following His will.

Cory Aquino, wife, mother, and the 11th president of the Philippines.
Sofia del Valle, a social activist with a vocation to single life.
And more strong and courageous women whose lives teach us what it means to love and spread His love
