\\u201cBlessed are They\\u201d: St Catherine of Genoa

\\u201cAmong Women\\u201d Guest: Donna-Marie Cooper O\\u2019Boyle

This week we look at the faith and testimony of St Catherine of Genoa, one of the Christian mystics from the Middle Ages who, despite heartaches and depression in her life, went on to live a life of heroic love of God and service to others. Today I\\u2019m also joined by Catholic author and EWTN TV host, Donna-Marie Cooper O\\u2019Boyle who shares her wisdom about holy struggles as well, as she talks about some of the themes of her latest book, Rooted in Love, Our Calling as Catholic Women.\\xa0

I also spend a few moments recapping where I\\u2019ve been, and what\\u2019s to come in the next few weeks with Among Women.
