A Lost Shepherd--a postcard from Georgia

At the publishing house of New Hope Press in Georgia--working on the final edition of A Lost Shepherd.
Had a great breakfast with members of the prayer group and all those who work at New Hope.

Asking for some prayers for all those involved with this little endeavor.
Thanks!

Reviews of A Lost Shepherd

Sometimes being unable to forgive our selves is the greatest obstacle to God. In his fascinating memoir, A Lost Shepherd, Michael Ripple gives us an insider's view into the life of a troubled priest and the soul of a man. He invites us along on his journey as he learns to embrace his new vocations of matrimony and fatherhood, and to forgive himself for turning from a call he first heard in his childhood. Whether or not Ripple feels worthy, the Blessed Mother is always by his side, filling him up, loving, healing, guiding, the sun trying to dawn in his heart. --Beverly Donofrio, author of Looking for Mary (or, the Blessed Mother and Me)
