Through the careful selection of her words and his own deep insights, Guglielmi invites anyone who reads this book to be challenged, nurtured, and molded by the spiritual motherhood of this extraordinary woman."" --Lorene Hanley Duquin, Author of They Called Her the Baroness ""In Staritsa, Guglielmi brings to life the treasure of a remarkable woman. Unique and insightful, this book will inspire anyone who cares deeply for the life of the mystical body of Christ--the church. Catherine Doherty, a pioneer in the lay apostolate, will be of particular interest to laywomen who identify their vocation in the context of lay ecclesial ministry today."" --Donna Eschenauer, Associate Dean, St. Joseph's Seminary, New York ""Staritsa is a gift from a spiritual father who clearly has been inspired by Catherine De Hueck Doherty, a spiritual mother who lived her love of the church with a passionate and pastoral heart. This is a book that can easily be shared and used for priestly convocations, women's retreats, days of recollection, and self-reflection, pondering not only Catherine's life, but the question, 'How can I, too, carry the Spirit of God in my life and work?'"" --Dianne Traflet, Associate Dean, Immaculate Conception Seminary School of Theology, Seton Hall University Donald A.
